Mondelez says that there are valuable synergies to be leveraged by bringing together two key Toblerone markets. Toblerone is the number one chocolate brand in travel retail, and has been produced exclusively in Bern, Switzerland, from the very origins of the brand. Mondelez WTR believes that this strategic move will increase efficiency and improve speed-to-market, further strengthening Mondelez’s position as the leading confectionery supplier in the channel.
The streamlined sales reporting structure will be effective February 15, 2017.
