3. Global Packaging Specification and Ocean Reefer Payload Yield Matrix

The following table compares operational parameters across primary Cadbury Dairy Milk packaging SKUs supplied by M-Pacific:

4. Flow-Wrap Foil Physics, Light Barriers, and Cold-Chain Preservation

Shipping delicate chocolate in ocean reefers across equatorial sea routes requires engineering high-barrier flexible packaging:

Multi-Layer Cold-Seal Flow-Wrap Film

Cadbury Dairy Milk bars utilize a multi-layer flexible film structure (OPP / Metallized PET / PE). The inner metallized layer creates an absolute light and oxygen barrier, protecting milk fats from photo-oxidation and light-induced rancidity over a 12 to 14-month shelf life.

Re-Sealable Cold-Seal Technology

Unlike heat-sealed packaging that risks scorching delicate chocolate edges, Cadbury utilizes pressure-sensitive cold-seal adhesives. This technology bonds film seams tightly at ambient room temperatures without applying heat to the chocolate bar.

5. Revenue Growth Management (RGM) and Channel Margin Optimization

Selecting the appropriate Cadbury SKU mix directly influences wholesale gross profitability:

• High Margin per Gram (Impulse Bars): Single-serve 45g and 50g impulse bars command higher retail price points per gram, maximizing retail gross margins per linear foot of checkout counter space.
• High Payload Density (Standard 180g Bars): Sourcing 180g standard bars maximizes ocean reefer weight payload (up to 14.8 Metric Tons), lowering cold-chain transport costs per unit.
• Volume Anchors: 350g family blocks serve as high-volume traffic drivers in hypermarkets and wholesale clubs.
