Ferrero India premium chocolate bar launch

Overview

Ferrero India has expanded its product portfolio by introducing Ferrero Rocher Bars into the Indian premium chocolate segment. The launch includes two 90g variants, Classic Hazelnut and 70 percent Cocoa Hazelnut, priced at Rs 499 per pack.

This strategic move aims to transition the brand from a focus on formal gifting toward personal indulgence and home sharing. Initial distribution is targeting quick-commerce platforms, with future plans to expand into modern trade and premium stores in major metropolitan areas. The expansion occurs as the Indian chocolate market evolves, with increasing competition from homegrown brands utilizing local cacao and artisanal processes.
