McDonald's Japan to again offer large-size French fries beginning Feb. 7

McDonald's large-size French fries.

McDonald’s Co. Japan will place its medium- and large-size French fries back on the menu to all of its 2,900 McDonald’s restaurants across the country from 10:30 a.m. on Monday after suspending its sale for nearly a month due to a potato shortage.

The company twice experienced a potato shortage since last December after worldwide logistics disruptions due to the coronavirus pandemic and flooding near a Vancouver port delayed potato imports from North America.

The hamburger chain continued to offer small-size fries during the potato shortage.

McDonald’s arranged a new transport route from the eastern coast of North America to fix the problem.

According to Mc|Donald’s they would continue to cooperate with importers and suppliers to ensure stable resource procurement.
