Traditional Hard Caramel Candy in French Retail
This segment has steady, loyal French demand with a seasonal peak around Christmas gifting — a different buying pattern from mainstream impulse confectionery, requiring separate merchandising consideration.
European Hard Candy Sourcing Within the EU
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 supplies European hard candy and traditional confectionery formats in bulk and private label for French buyers, including seasonal and gifting formats.
