St Pierre is expanding its portfolio with a brand-new collection of ten individually-wrapped European-inspired snacks. Launching this month, the new range was inspired by the fact that more than half (55%) of consumers snack between meals at least twice a day.1 Not only are consumers snacking more, but they are also seeking a broader range of products to meet their lifestyle needs.
St Pierre On the Go products help retailers differentiate their offerings and satisfy their customers snacking needs. The new range offers a variety of sweet snacks to enjoy throughout the day, whether seeking a waffle for a quick breakfast or a Chocolate Cake Bar as a lunch-time treat.
“We wanted to create a product that appealed to the busy, on the go American consumer but still represented our core brand,” said Paul Baker, Founder, St Pierre Groupe. “Our On the Go range includes a combination of St Pierre bestsellers like our Waffles and Crepes as well as new products like the Rocky Road Bar and Chocolate Caramel Shortbread Bar. These products are the perfect complement to a hot cup of coffee or tea, which is why we feel they will do well in the c-store space, especially when merchandised and promoted together.”
