Hotel Chocolat says that it achieved an 11 per cent rise in its revenues for the half-year to December 27th, benefiting from 19 per cent lift in sales for the 13 weeks to December 27th. The business had focused on digital channels in the wake of assorted regional and national lockdowns and says that sales during the current period are in line with its expectations.
“The strength of our brand and our ability to flex our multichannel model meant that despite the challenging environment every business and every family has faced, we were able to keep on delivering ‘chocolat’ happiness, launch new products and deliver strong sales growth,” said Angus Thirlwell, CEO.
“The growth momentum stepped up in Japan and the USA, and we have seen that it’s underpinned by what the Hotel Chocolat brand image brings that is differentiated and exciting to these mega markets.”
