Anisha Guptan, Business Head, The Leap said, “Hugo Reitzel is a globally loved brand of Swiss condiments. Today, with the Indian palette acquiring a bigger appetite for gourmet world foods, we at THE LEAP are excited to offer India and the large expat community in India, a taste of Switzerland. While pickles as a concept is not alien to India, this is a whole new taste. We are working closely with Hugo Reitzel's India team to add punch to India's plate through an approach that integrates packaging, communication, point of sale and digital."

Karan Motwani, Director - Market Resonance said, “We are excited to be the consumer research partners for Hugo Reitzel. The Swiss pickles market is relatively less explored in India.
