KP Snacks is introducing an all-star range this Christmas encompassing new flavours, fun festive shapes and the return of KP Nuts’ best-selling caddies. With festive sales of crisps, nuts and snacks representing a staggering £600m each December, the company is aiming to tap into this opportunity and boost sales this year with its all-new line up.
Nuts Christmas Sales Ahead
Synonymous with the festive season and a traditional snacks staple, 40% of all KP Nuts sales occur at Christmas as consumers look to buy quality brands that they know and trust to share with friends and family.
The consumer appetite for KP Nuts caddies remains as strong as ever with the current Christmas SKUs delivering £4m retail sales value last year. Caddies represent incremental sales opportunities for retailers and the stackable format ensures they are an easy addition to any store shelf.
The UK’s favourite nut brand is re-introducing Christmas editions of its popular KP Nuts Caddy range across three loved flavours: Jumbo Salted Peanuts, Honey Roast peanuts and Dry Roasted peanuts. KP Nut caddies offer the perfect sharing solution whilst maintaining great value with an RRP of £4.29.

Continuing with the pricing aligned to the core caddies at RRP of £4.29, XL Crunchy Coated Sweet Chilli and Lemon flavour peanuts boasts a contemporary new taste and bigger XL crunch for the same great value of the traditional variants.
