"By offering the right mix of impulse and take home Ice Cream, the category has the potential to be a year round sales driver for retailers. With nearly 80 million single Ice Creams bought in retail stores last year making an estimated value of £117M to the sector, it’s easy to see why Ice Cream is the second most impulsive purchase after confectionery. Ice Cream is a jewel in the crown of convenience retailers and by offering the right mix of the biggest selling singles in the impulse cabinet, you can maximise your sales. Chock Snacks such as brand-leading Magnum, account for almost half of all sales and new products like Magnum Billionaire and Magnum Remix are always big sellers. Add in Children's Ice Cream like Twister which account for another quarter of sales and complement with a selection of Filled Cones and Adult Refreshment lines to generate strong incremental Impulse sales. Check out our advice to make sure you are giving your customers the optimum range."

We used to stock value products but found that they didn't sell. We looked at the advice on the Partners for Growth website and made changes according to the planograms and best seller recommendations. Our Ice Cream sales have increased by nearly 30%. I'm thrilled!
