Movie Chain Launches AMC Cinema Sweets Private Label

AMC Theatres, the largest theatrical exhibitor in the United States and the world,  announced that beginning this week and for the first time in its 103 year history, an all-new line of AMC-branded premium gourmet chocolate candies – AMC Cinema Sweets – is available to moviegoers at AMC concession stands throughout the United States.

The launch of AMC Cinema Sweets follows more than a year of study and close collaboration with top confectioners to create premium gourmet chocolate candies that will delight guests and complement the other delicious snacks AMC offers as part of a superior movie-going experience — all at competitive price points.

These new delectable premium gourmet chocolate candy varieties are among the most sought-after flavors that guests order when enjoying a movie, including Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels with a Dark Chocolate Drizzle, Milk Chocolate Covered Almonds, Milk Chocolate Covered Raisins and Milk Chocolate Covered Peanuts.

“We spent the last year in research and development ensuring that AMC Cinema Sweets, carrying the AMC name, are candies we are proud of, and just as important – really delicious snacks that our guests will enjoy and seek out when they come to the movies,” said Hank Green, vice president, food & beverage, AMC. “The launch of AMC Cinema Sweets – these four premium gourmet candies, with more on the way – are another way that AMC consistently makes movies better — and makes the movie-going experience even sweeter.”

The new premium gourmet candy varieties are available at all AMC theater locations across the United States, with plans to roll out additional varieties in 2024.

AMC is the largest movie exhibition company in the United States, the largest in Europe and the largest throughout the world with approximately 900 theaters and 10,000 screens across the globe. AMC has propelled innovation in the exhibition industry by: deploying its Signature power-recliner seats; delivering enhanced food and beverage choices; generating greater guest engagement through its loyalty and subscription programs, website, and mobile apps; offering premium large format experiences and playing a wide variety of content including the latest Hollywood releases and independent programming.

In addition, in 2023 AMC launched AMC Theatres Distribution with the highly successful releases of Taylor Swift The Eras Tour and Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce. AMC Theatres Distribution expects to release more concert films with the world’s leading musical artists in the years ahead. For more information, visit www.amctheatres.com.
