Additionally, 63% of shoppers believe PMPs suggest they are not being overcharged.

A Lindt & Sprüngli spokesperson said: “Since their launch in 2016, Lindt Lindor bars have proved hugely popular in the convenience and on-the-go sector. We always endeavour to assess the market and innovate where demand lies and found that PMPs, although well established, are one of the most successful promotional techniques which represent good value for money.

“We believe PMPs will only increase in popularity, especially as the clear pricing provides reassurance the shopper isn’t being overcharged. We understand the importance of PMPs in the impulse sector and strive to support retailers by including our top-selling bars as PMPs.
