The Ferrero Group plans to launch a new range of Wonka products and work with Netflix. Ferrero bought the Wonka brand in 2018. Since then, their teams have been creating new recipes to make the magical world of Wonka come to life, using Ferrero’s high quality and creativity.
Ferrero wants to keep developing new products and growing its famous brands that people around the world love. Wonka has been popular for 60 years, and Ferrero wants to bring it back for fans. They will release ten seasonals as well as limited-edition products in different categories to excite customers.
These new seasonal products will make the candy aisle more exciting and attract both stores and shoppers.
The products will be in stores starting this autumn. Fans can enjoy special Wonka flavors, textures, and shapes in chocolate, sugar candy, ice cream, and cereals. They will be available in the US and key European markets like the UK, France, Italy, and Germany. The new Wonka products will show the same creativity, curiosity, as well as wonder that fans have loved in books and movies for generations.
As per Coherent Market Insights, the Consumer Product and Retail Market will grow at a 7.4% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2026 to 2033, from USD 26.08 Tn in 2026 to around USD 42.98 Tn by 2033. Consumer products provide advantages to both companies and buyers. For companies, consumer products allow specialization in production, marketing, and distribution. Mass production creates economies of scale. Branding builds customer loyalty.
Alessandro Rapali, Premium Chocolate President at Ferrero Group, said: "We're excited to be introducing a new Wonka family of products, starting with chocolate, sugar confectionery, ice cream and cereals. For generations, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory has been part of popular culture; our ambition is to apply the Ferrero lens to the Wonka universe and to bring fresh new energy to the seasonal aisle. Behind the scenes, our research, development and innovation teams have been carefully leveraging decades of experience in real chocolate factories, applying Ferrero's signature quality and craftsmanship, and bringing to life a new Wonka world - one that we can't wait to offer to Wonka fans."
"Netflix is reimagining the Wonka universe built on extraordinary imagination and whimsical creations, and Ferrero, with its outstanding heritage of product innovation and brand-building, could not be a better home for this partnership. Together, with the magic of our upcoming entertainment and Ferrero's world-class portfolio, we're giving fans a delectable new way to experience the wonder of Wonka on screen and on shelves around the world."
