Chicago, June 1, 2023Circana, formerly IRI and The NPD Group, announced the winners of its annual consumer awards during the Sweets and Snacks Expo, hosted by National Confectioners Association in Chicago, May 22-25. Circana’s Consumer Awards, presented by Circana’s food and beverage consumption practice to the winning sweets and snacks manufacturers, were based on the highest share of eatings together with needs, motivations, situations, or occasions that influenced the snack or treat selection, according to the company’s SnackTrack® service, which continually tracks treat and snack consumption attitudes and behaviors.


“Despite the pressure of higher food prices, consumers always find a way to treat themselves with sweets and snacks,” says Darren Seifer, Circana food and beverage industry analyst. “Through our consumer awards, we recognize manufacturers that provide consumers with the treats and snacks they want for whatever reason they want them, like watching fireworks, playing games, or it’s their favorite routine.”
