Dragos Militaru, managing director of Kandia, says that in the first nine months of the year sales of chocolate and confectionery dropped in volumes by as much as 10% and rose by value.

“Despite a declining market, our main brand ROM, Magura, Kandia, Fagaras, Laura and Primola registered market share increases,” stated the manager.

He added the company constantly exports to 17 countries and generates around 6% of turnover abroad. This year, Kandia Dulce returned to the market of Serbia and managed to deliver ROM chocolate to Canada and the US.
