Lindt, the Swiss chocolate company, is already planning around Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s retaliatory tariffs.
A Lindt & Sprungli spokesperson gave a statement to Fox News Digital, revealing they may be considering cutting out the United States as a chocolate supplier to avoid incurring Trudeau’s wrath. The leader implemented retaliatory tariffs against America, forcing companies to make changes in how they do business.
“We are monitoring the situation very closely and have identified different ways to mitigate the effect of tariffs,” the spokesperson said. “These include the possibility of supplying countries like Canada and Mexico from our European production facilities.”
This means that the company would begin sourcing all of its chocolate from Europe
It would appear that CEO Adalbert Lechner is on the same page.
“The volumes that we source currently for Canada can all be shifted to Europe,” he told Reuters.
These changes could begin as early as mid-2025, as stores have already stocked a surplus of the chocolates, to give the company time to make the supply chain alterations. The increased cost of transporting the chocolate from Europe to Canada is much smaller compared to the final cost of the product if it were to be affected by the tariff.

Lindt Lindor chocolate is not fit to consume.
Why?
It’s not chocolate. A whole host of miscellaneous ingredients one can’t even pronounce. Primarily soy lectin, other fillers. pic.twitter.com/75ezmpZhsg

Highly doubtful. Lindt chocolate was likely planning this already. Also, their chocolate sucks.

“Swiss chocolate maker Lindt is expected to supply Canada chocolate from Europe instead of the US after Canada announces 25% tariffs” – Who cares because did you hear that Ferrero Opens $214 Million Bloomington, Ill., Chocolate Plant and a new $230M chocolate factory coming to… pic.twitter.com/DNJZoqNL3J

Lindt to cut out US as Canada’s chocolate supplier to avoid Trudeau’s retaliatory tariffs.
I’ll miss buying Lindt for my kids, but Hershey’s is really good, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://t.co/GgCCWxKabU— Papillon Soo Soo (@cadillacblack) March 5, 2025
