Lindt Wholesale in the USA: A Buyer's Guide
Lindt & Sprüngli operates its own US retail boutiques and premium grocery distribution directly, making third-party wholesale access more selective than for mass-market chocolate brands. US buyers seeking premium chocolate for their range should expect a more relationship-driven process.
Complementary European Confectionery Sourcing for the US
US confectionery imports are subject to FDA labelling rules (Nutrition Facts panel, FALCPA allergen declarations, English-language ingredient lists) and, for high-sugar products, the USDA/USTR sugar tariff-rate quota system — within-quota duty rates are low, but over-quota rates are significantly higher, so buyers should confirm HTS classification and quota status before ordering. There is no federal VAT; sales tax is set at state and local level and varies widely by destination. Candora Trading supplies European bulk and private label confectionery for US retailers building a range spanning mainstream and premium segments.
