Indofood Sukses Raises Instant Noodle Prices for First Time in Three Years

(Bloomberg) -- PT Indofood Sukses Makmur, the world's
biggest instant-noodle maker, raised prices of the staple for the
first time in more than three years after wheat and palm oil

The Indonesian company raised the price by 50 rupiah (1 U.S.

Setiawan, head of investor relations at the company. That raised
the price of the best-selling Indomie Rasa Kari Ayam by 5 percent
to 1,050 rupiah, while Indomie Mi Goreng rose 5.5 percent to 950
rupiah.
