For retailers in the candy and snack category, private label candy programs provide a valuable opportunity to establish a strong brand identity, stand out from competitors, and build customer loyalty. One way to achieve this is by offering a seasonal private label candy program that features best sellers and also unique items not dominant in National Brands.
