Caroline Grimshaw, brand manager of Mentos and Smint, said: “Smint is the number-one sugar-free mint brand, a must stock for retailers, and with over 60% of people rating Smint as an everyday essential, we are in the prime position to launch our well-loved product in a new format.
“The introduction of Mentos Minis comes at the perfect time as portion control and health consideration becomes a topic increasingly under the microscope.”
The supplier is supporting the new format launches with social media and in-store activity.
