In correspondence to just-food, a spokesperson for Hershey said: “Hershey is pleased with the Russian court’s decision upholding the cancellation of the Krasny Oktyabar registration. This decision is important because Ice Breakers is an iconic brand and one of the key global brands in our product portfolio”.
United Confectioners and Red October could not be reached for comment.
