Mothers Day & Easter19 Mar 2013 22:17
Very positive news from trading report in FEB 2013. Sp has increased steady over last 6-12 months and we now head into a real powerful Q for Thorntons whose comments are pretty exciting. Similar to TCG, IMO this is going to go same way and burst through the £1 milestone very soon. GLA, this is not a pump and dump- this is a steady growing share that is getting back to where it was several years back with the implementation of a strong strategy that is turning the chocolate shop around. Looking forward to steady rises upto May where performance will make your chocolate melt !! ATB
We have strong plans for our key Spring trading seasons of Mothers' Day and Easter with further innovation in exciting new products, packaging and merchandising. As last year, we have planned cautiously for our Own Store and Franchise channels but anticipate further growth in sales and market share this Easter in our UK Commercial channel. We have a strong order book to support this. As ever, the performance of the Company over these important seasons will define the outcome for the year as a whole.
