The company has also launched a no-added-sugar version of its Nugatti chocolate spread.
An Orkla spokesperson told just-food it wanted “to take advantage of the brand strength of Polly and stretch the brand into other categories”, noting the company already sells Polly chocolate bars.
“In addition, the peanut butter category has relatively few players and we want to take advantage of our strong presence in the sweet spread category with already strong brands as Nugatti, Sjokade, Banos and Sunda,” the spokesperson said.
Orkla, meanwhile, is looking to meet interest among parents to reduce their children’s sugar intake with the new Nuggati chocolate spread.
