Hotel Chocolat swings to loss as online struggles
Hotel Chocolat has slipped into the red with revenues dropping 10%, owing to lower online and international sales.
Sales at the chocolatier declined to £204.5m for the 53 weeks ending July 3, 2023, down from £226.1m the previous year.
Profit before tax swung from £21.7m last year to a £800,000 loss for the period, which the retailer said was in line with market expectations.
