Constant innovation feeds the success of Spain's Lacasa Chocolates, especially in e-Commerce.


In our 39th Episode, we enjoy an interesting and practical chat
with Luis Román, Director of New Business Development
at Lacasa.

Lacasa is a 170-year old European leader
in the Food and Confectionery industry,

Lacasitos – 'the Spanish M&Ms' –
are so beloved by consumers that
it has been impossible for Mars, Inc.
to unseat the Brand & its dominant
market share.

Transparent and knowledgable,
Luis freely shares not only the day-to-day
ways he fosters Innovation and Creativity
within his team.

He also offers strategic Marketing advice,
as well as tips for those in the Food Industry
wishing to enter (and succed) in e-Commerce.

"Capitalise the ROI & value
of your Top Brands.

What's truly innovative
should be new & very relevant,
leading your consumers to buy,
again and again."
