Emma Stowers, brand director for McVitie’s at Pladis UK&I, said: “No biscuit aisle without two of the most popular brands from our £457m McVitie’s range, McVitie’s Digestives and McVitie’s Hobnobs. With the launch of our new, premium collection, we’re building on the momentum we’ve generated for the two brands – which were up by 35% between March and September this year.
“By launching our ‘Fully Coated’ collection and adding an extra bit of indulgence to our bestsellers in this new format, we’ll also offer shoppers the chance to enjoy their McVitie’s favourites throughout the day.
“Given current circumstances, we also expect more consumers to prioritise affordable, at-home treats as we move into 2021.”
