The Loacker Chocolaterie range has been showcased by the brand just ahead of its 100th anniversary that's taking place in 2025 to provide consumers with a delicious option to pick up before year's end. The new products include the brand's signature wafers and chocolate in dark, milk and white options with cream filling to match, while also providing mini indulgences. The product range responds to consumer shopping habits and will make its debut into the travel retail channel as an option for travelers to pick up on their next trip.
Head of Travel Retail and Duty Free Juan Miguel Cabrera commented on the new Loacker Chocolaterie range saying, "We are excited to introduce our new Chocolaterie collection to our business partners in Cannes, and explore new ways to leverage the potential of the under-developed wafer/biscuit category in travel retail. While gifting continues to be a key purchase driver for the category, there is increased demand for on-the-go snacking/sharing products too, so it’s important to offer something for everyone, in order to maximize purchase opportunities.”
