Freddo Frogs. A Genuis Investment or just a Sweet Treat?


Cadburys Freddo Frogs, a small 18 gram bar of chocolate that has been infamous recently for its rapid price inflation. In 2000 the average freddo cost you only £0.1 but as of recently they have skyrocketed to £0.25. That's a 150% increase in price!

If this trend continues by 2030 just 1 freddo could cost you 36p! That's another 44% from todays price. 

At this point your probably wondering the same thing as I am "What if I bought 10,000 Freddos at todays price and sold them in 2030 for +44% profit?".

Well first of all there are some obvious logistical problems:

1. Freddos will go out of date

2. Where am I going to find 10,000 Freddos?

3. Who is going to want to buy 10,000 Freddos?

The first problem is the more tricky of the three. According to a quick google search the Freddos will still be ok to eat within 5-8 months of buying them. This means you will need to sell all of your freddos 1-2 weeks before they go out of date and then use that money plus profit to buy even more new Freddos. 

From there you just repeat the cycle. Buy Freddos, Hold Freddos, Sell Freddos for profit, Buy more Freddos.

As for problem 2 you can probably buy 10,000 Freddos pretty easily from Cadbury. And problem 3 can be solved by selling your Freddos to big retailers or a selection of smaller stores. 

At todays price buying 10,000 Freddos would cost you only £2,500. A reasonably cheap entry price to which will soon be a Freddo empire.

With an average return of 4.36% (This has been the average over the last 23 years) per year which you then use to buy more Freddos by 2050 you should own over £5,000 in Freddos. By 2100 you could own more than £43,000 in Freddos.

In conclusion, Freddos have been proven to be a more stable investment than most cryptocurrencies. 

Until next time, Happy Freddoing!
