Summer stand promotions at Hancocks


With both pick and mix and pre pack stand ranges shortly to be on promotion at Hancocks, it’s the perfect time for independent retailers to review their confectionery display.


Retailers are able to save £91 by purchasing two mini (12 bin) pick and mix stands including 24 bags of free stock for just £499 (excluding vat).

“These compact little stands are excellent for the independent market and can prove to be an effective way to profit from the fast growing weighouts category.

“Two small stands can sit side by side for maximum impact, or be positioned in different areas of a store – perhaps one containing a children’s range and the other some popular adult sweets. Saving £45.50 on each stand makes for a very attractive offer,” says Hancocks purchasing director Richard Brittle.

Selling the 24 bags of free stock returns £496.80 (excluding vat) which clearly pays for the two stands, so the investment is entirely recovered.

The popular Share Bag range of adult pre packed sweets recently received an updated image, boosting sales enormously.

With the introduction of Sweet Peanuts to the range, an offer allows you to purchase five cases of Share Bag and get a case of new Sweet Peanuts for free (worth £10 at rrp).

“With a bespoke designed stand available, this range is ideal for the impulsive nature of independent retail. Sweet Peanuts are a very popular weighout item and so we expect them to perform extremely well in the Share Bag range” adds Brittle.

Both promotions will be available from 21 June until 4 July from all 15 Hancocks Cash and Carries.
