Reese's Wholesale in France: A Buyer's Guide

As an EU-based supplier, Candora Trading's shipments into France are intra-EU trade, not import — there are no customs declarations or import duties, since goods move freely within the EU single market. B2B buyers handle VAT via the reverse-charge mechanism, and shipments above the relevant threshold require Intrastat statistical reporting. Note that French VAT treats confectionery differently from most food: confiserie (sweets and chocolate) is excluded from the reduced 5.5% food rate and taxed at the standard 20% rate. Candora Trading supports French distributors sourcing European confectionery to sit alongside filled chocolate brands like Reese's.

Peanut-based confectionery like Reese's sits in a genuinely distinct sourcing category from most gummy and hard candy, since it requires dedicated allergen-controlled production facilities to avoid cross-contact risk for other allergen-free lines. Candora Trading's core gummy and hard candy range doesn't include peanut-based products, which suits allergen-conscious buyers building peanut-free confectionery ranges without cross-contact concerns.

For distributors carrying both peanut confectionery and allergen-free lines, sourcing them from separate, dedicated facilities — rather than one supplier claiming to handle both safely — is standard risk management practice. Candora Trading supplies gummy, sour, and hard candy from facilities outside the peanut confectionery category, suited to buyers building allergen-conscious range depth alongside peanut-based brands.
