These new Spar products are being launched by the retailer in the UK to help expand its offerings for seasonal eating, which is perfectly timed to coincide with the first restriction-free summer season since 2019.
The food products include jumbo hot dogs, chorizo-style sausages, a wide range of dips and quiches. The collection also includes products from last year returning as a limited edition with others added with some upgrades for shoppers to appreciate.
Senior Brand Manager Joanne Cramer spoke on the new Spar products saying, "This is a huge opportunity for stores to support Spar own-label. We see stores that engage early and support the new lines to maximise seasonal performance reap the benefits. Shoppers to our stores can get great quality and value from choosing some of our award-winning hero lines such as our Spar basil houmous, lamb koftas, feta and spinach parcels, and spicy tapas collection."
