In the US, inflation remains ugly as the supply chain crisis lingers and labor shortages persist.

This combination of factors puts pressure on companies struggling with higher input costs and offering higher wages to attract employees. In return, companies say they are being forced to raise the prices of their products in order to stay competitive.

Over the summer, FOX Business provided a roundup of companies that have raised their prices, including Chipotle, ConAgra, General Mills, and Kimberly Clark.

Here’s another list of big names with price hikes of their own that could hit your wallet:

“Despite our efforts to reduce these rising costs in our supply chain, they are simply too high to be absorbed. The unprecedented cost is persistent and shows no sign of regulation, ”said Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh, CEO of Del Monte. “After careful consideration, it is necessary to carry out inflation-adjusted price increases in order to maintain our continuous delivery and service level.”

We are continuously working to improve the availability of our products, ”an IKEA spokesman said in a statement to FOX Business. “We have and will work hard to keep our prices as stable as possible – but it is difficult to predict how the global disruptions could affect the coming months.”
