Lindt & Sprüngli has reported a dip in growth momentum for the first half of 2026. According to FoodNavigator Europe, the company saw growth slow to 4.3% as the ongoing cocoa crisis continued to affect operations.
The chocolatier has struggled with rising cocoa costs, which led to higher retail prices. This pricing strategy has begun to weigh on sales volumes, suggesting the brand may be reaching the limit of its pricing power with consumers.
