Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprüngli AG / Key word(s): Development of Sales
Media Release: Sales Results 2024 | Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Article 53 LR Kilchberg, January 14, 2025 – The Lindt & Sprüngli Group once again achieved strong organic growth of 7.8% in 2024. Group sales in Swiss Francs increased by 5.1% to CHF 5.47 billion, influenced by the negative currency effect of -2.7%. This increase was supported by mid-single-digit price increases to offset higher cocoa prices, as well as solid volume/mix development. All regions contributed to the sales growth.
The Lindt & Sprüngli Group looks back on a challenging year characterized by record-high cocoa costs, substantial price increases, and weakened consumer sentiment. The cocoa market was volatile in the reporting year, with cocoa prices remaining at a historic high by the end of 2024. Offsetting the high cocoa costs forced the Group to adjust its pricing, which will be further required in 2025.
Continued growth in all regions
Core products and innovation drive growth
Outlook
More details on the full-year results for 2024 will follow at 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
