Haribo Travel Retail Manager Elisa Fontana commented: “Haribo now has a delightful travel retail portfolio designed to suit a wide range of consumers. Our aim in 2017 is to develop our partnerships with retailers and distributors worldwide and to roll out this portfolio in Europe, Middle East and the Americas, including our Halal range and the regional variations like the Scandinavian selection.

“Haribo had a good year in 2016 with healthy growth in both volume and value, although the effects of the market slow-down became evident in the last quarter. We are continuing to strengthen our market share in Europe, especially in continental Europe and the UK. Our Americas-specific travel retail range was launched in 2016, starting with the US followed by South America, and the first results are promising.

“This year we want to continue extending the range in this region and enlarging our distribution, entering new markets like Brazil and increasing our presence in North America.”
