However, the spokesperson could not disclose the name of the distributor in China. The deal was signed a couple of weeks ago, he added.

The products will be available in high-end convenience stores and supermarkets in Shanghai and Beijing.

In June, Tyrrells appointed Anne-Laure Follie in the new role of international marketing manager. The move was part of plans to drive further growth overseas, the company said at the time of the announcement.
