Cadbury chocolates will be marketed in Israel by the Israeli chocolate manufacturer Carmit, following an agreement between Carmit and Cadbury-Schweppes.

According to StoreAlliance Israel, Carmit will import Cadbury’s products which are not available on the local market, “and also complement the range of products manufactured by Carmit. We have no intention of competing with Elite’s chocolate bars and snacks,” according to Lenny Sakstin, Carmit General Manager.
Carmit is Israel’s leading manufacturer of marshmallows, with 60% of the market share for this product, but the group holds just 4% of the chocolate market. Carmit’s General Manager said that the company will promote the Cadbury brand in Israel, starting towards the end of the year after carrying out a reorganisation plan at Carmit.
