Hotel Chocolat announces plans for 25 new UK stores after record Christmas sales Hotel Chocolat enjoyed its best ever Christmas, with UK sales hitting record highs.
Hotel Chocolat is gearing up to unveil its "most expansive ever" store in Manchester come spring, alongside two fresh outlets in the US as part of an ambitious stateside expansion.
Despite consumers continuing to feel the pinch, they went for quality this Christmas and we posted strong sales across our accessible price points from the £5.95 chocolate-filled table cracker right up to our £200 velvetiser experience hamper.
The chocolatier, snapped up by Mars last year, is set to spread even more joy with plans to open 25 new UK stores and create 200 jobs.
Since launching its first boutique in north London in 2004, Hotel Chocolat has grown exponentially, offering everything from classic chocolate assortments to luxurious velvetisers online and in-store.
