McDonald's Co. (Japan) will limit its french fries offerings to small sizes from Friday to Dec 30 due to delayed deliveries of potatoes from North America caused by flooding near a Vancouver port and a COVID-19-triggered worldwide logistics disruption.
The suspension will take place at about 2,900 stores nationwide.
The fast-food giant is expediting potato procurement via alternative measures, including flying supplies to Japan, and plans to resume selling medium- and large-size fries by 10:30 a.m. on Dec. 31.
McDonald's will fly in 1,000 tons of potatoes while selling small portions of French fries.
According to McDonald's, it would continue to sell small-size offerings to let customers enjoy the popular item despite the shortage.
The delivery issue will not affect its hash brown offerings.
