Lindt & Sprüngli to Raise Chocolate Prices Again in 2025

The Swiss chocolate maker cites record-high cocoa costs and rising production expenses as key factors for the price hike.

Lindt & Sprüngli has announced plans to increase chocolate prices in 2025 due to record-high cocoa prices and rising ingredient costs.
The company had already raised prices in 2024, but the sustained cost pressures have necessitated further adjustments.
Despite a challenging consumer environment, Lindt & Sprüngli reported a 5.1% revenue increase in 2024, reaching 5.47 billion Swiss francs (€5.8 billion).
The hand-crafted 'Lindt Dubai Chocolade' was a standout success in 2024, with a similar recipe now being adapted for larger-scale production.
Other chocolate manufacturers, such as Ritter Sport, have also raised prices recently, citing poor cocoa harvests and climate change impacts.
