Nutella Wholesale in the UK: A Buyer's Guide
Nutella is widely distributed in UK grocery by Ferrero, with most wholesale demand for the bulk-format product coming from UK foodservice, bakery, and dessert businesses rather than confectionery retailers.
Foodservice and Bulk Demand vs. Retail Confectionery
Bulk-format hazelnut spread is widely used in UK bakery, dessert, and café menu applications alongside standard retail jars. Buyers sourcing bulk spread for foodservice or manufacturing should treat this as an ingredient supply chain question, distinct from confectionery retail sourcing.
European Confectionery as a Complementary UK Import Category
UK VAT applies confectionery at the standard 20% rate — unlike most food, sweets and chocolate are specifically excluded from the UK's zero-rating for food. For EU-origin confectionery, the UK–EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement allows tariff-free import provided the goods meet rules-of-origin requirements and the correct origin documentation (e.g. a statement on origin) accompanies the shipment; goods that don't meet origin rules fall under the standard UK Global Tariff. Candora Trading's core range is confectionery — jelly, sour, and private label candy — rather than spreads, supporting UK distributors who carry both categories.
