Feb 3 (Reuters) - Lindt  LISN.S  expects any potential
impact from U.S. tariffs to be very limited given that the vast
majority of its products sold in the US are produced locally, a
spokesperson of the Swiss chocolate maker told Reuters.
    President Donald Trump has announced he will impose 25%
tariffs on Canada and Mexico and 10% tariffs on China but he has
not outlined so far any concrete measure impacting European
firms.
    North America is Lindt's second biggest market, accounting
for sales of 2.15 billion Swiss francs ($2.34 billion) in 2024.
