Approximately 2,000 food items have been reduced by as much as 15%. For example, pre-made curry sauce was reduced from \u00a568 to \u00a558, and cheese was reduced from \u00a5498 to \u00a5458. AEON\u2019s sister company Max Value, which has 123 branches in Kyushu, is also having sales on about 90 private brand items.
