Kellogg’s products will be removed from shelves, replaced with notices saying: “Kellogg is unable to meet the Co-op’s delivery terms,” reported The Grocer. Kellogg said the Co-op had made “unreasonable demands”.


“There has been an issue where Co-op wanted to negotiate a separate deal with us outside the EU mandates which say we have to treat customers fairly and equally. We are disappointed and believe they are reducing choice. We are doing everything we can to get back into those stores,” Kellogg’s European director of corporate affairs, Chris Wermann, was quoted by The Grocer as saying.
