Nestlé to Raise Ice Cream Prices in December

In depth

Froneri Israel, which markets Nestlé ice cream, will raise prices on its products starting December 1 by an average of 2.8%. The company notified retailers of the change, which takes effect at the beginning of next month.

The increase will apply to brands such as Crunch, Extreme, La Frutta and La Cremeria, as well as Extreme Tiloni and Milka Shalgoni. Price changes range from 1.3% for Milka Shalgoni to 6.8% for Extreme Tiloni Magadot. Oreo, Chamushonim and Gumigum are also getting more expensive.

Froneri Israel explains the move by a continued rise in input prices, shipping costs and production costs. This is the third price increase for the company's products within about two years, and it follows price hikes carried out last winter.
