Did somebody say 'snack time'?!

Article Abstract:

The overall volume of the chocolate bar category climbed by 11.3% for the 12-month period ended Feb. 28, 1998 from year before figures. The category expanded with new-product introductions in 1997, including Cadbury Chocolate Canada's TimeOut and Effem's Dove Caramel bar. To keep established brands fresh, companies also relied on brand extensions via new flavors, new pack sizes and package redesigns. The category resorted to advertising in newspapers, outdoor boards, TV and on stores-mountains of marketing initiatives.
