These new Galbani cheeses are making their way to the chilled cheese range in the UK from the Lactalis-owned Italian cheese brand to help bring artisan-style options to more consumers. The products include the Galbani Burrata Minis alongside the Galbani Mozzarella Basil Infusion, which are making their debut at Waitrose now ahead of further retail launches later this spring. The cheese products are arriving with promotional price points to encourage consumers to give them a try for less.
Lactalis UK & Ireland Group Marketing Director Héloïse Le Norcy-Trott commented on the new Galbani cheeses saying, "We’re seeing strong demand for products that combine quality, convenience and versatility, and these launches are designed to help retailers meet that need while unlocking more occasions for Italian cheese."
