Confectionery checkout bans will have limited impact on impulse buys in independent grocers and convenience stores, but chocolate companies may need to reduce reliance on countlines and diversify with tablets and even salty snacks to remain competitive,...
The chocolates contaminated by salmonella, which Aldi recalled at the end of last week, came from a German manufacturer, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has confirmed.
Italian confectioner Ferrero has become the first company to
persuade Aldi to abandon its hard discount strategy, signing a deal
to supply the world's biggest discount supermarket chain with seven
of its chocolate brands.
