Friday May 27, two months after the Kinder affair which had led 22 children to the hospital, the boss of the Ferrero group, of which the brand is a part, apologized in an interview given to the Parisian. A few lines that seem quite insufficient for the families of the victims.
A few weeks after salmonella poisoning, Kinder products remain on the shelves and have lost no less than 40% of turnover. “We don’t buy any more at all”testifies a father, while a woman has found another solution “Orange, banana, all Kinder or chocolate stuff, even on other brands, we try to avoid”. As Buitoni Where Lactalis, Kinder is not the only brand implicated in food scandals.
In question, at the time of the scandal, the brand Kinder took a long time to react and withdraw its products from sale. Despite the first cases detected in December, we had to wait until March to no longer see the brand’s items on the shelves. Through the interview given by the boss of the brand, some do not believe in the sincerity of Kinderbut see a real communication operation to rehabilitate the brand and start selling its products again.
