Nested loops become unwieldy when you have many arrays. With a suitable module it does not matter how many dimension the input has:
use 5.010;
use Set::Scalar qw();
my $iter = Set::Scalar->cartesian_product_iterator(
map { Set::Scalar->new(@$_) }
[1, 2, 3],
[qw/a b c/],
[qw/I II III/],
);
while (my @m = $iter->()) {
say "@m";
}
There are numerous alternatives:

Bonus:
use v6;
.say for cross (1, 2, 3), <a b c>, <I II III>
