Additionally, Loseley is also extending its Nickelodeon partnership with a new range of "SpongeBob SquarePants" 110ml ice cream tubs. The company will launch strawberry and chocolate flavour variants following strong sales of the original vanilla pot launched earlier this year (2013). Each 110ml tub comes with a spoon in the lid and is 95% fat free. Made with fresh milk, the product is free from artificial additives, preservatives and colourings. Tubs are available in cases of 24 with an RRP of £1.20 per unit.
"It is set to be far and away one of our most successful launches," said Andrew Howard, Managing Director (MD) of Beechdean, the parent brand of Loseley, adding that he was hoping to treble the size of the business over the next four years.
