Unilever-owned spread brand Marmite has teamed up with Marks & Spencer to launch a cheddar cheese and Marmite skillet sandwich.

The sandwich features soft, vitamin-D-enriched white bread, a Marmite cream cheese spread and Marks & Spencer’s British farmhouse cheddar cheese.

Melissa Wimble, UK&I licensing manager at Unilever, said: “We have a track record of creating disruptive and delicious Marmite products with Marks & Spencer, and we can’t wait for shoppers to take a bite of the new cheddar cheese and Marmite skillet sandwich. Marks & Spencer sandwiches rate number one on quality, and this already popular at-home sandwich filling has been perfected to join the retailer’s lunchtime offering." 

“Within the food-to-go category, innovation and stand-out design are big drivers of trial, especially amongst younger consumers. We also know more people are looking for tasty and affordable vegetarian lunchtime options. As a result, we’re expecting this product to introduce a new generation to the simple joys of Marmite at any time of day.”

The new sandwich is available in all Marks & Spencer stores nationwide for £2.00.
