Kit Kat Hires Armed Guards To Protect Its Chocolate Bars After Massive Robbery

The recent heist of 12 tons of Kit Kat bars has prompted the popular candyโ€™s distributors to hire armed escorts.

Kit Kat has even created a new app designed to find the stolen chocolate bars.

The company launched a KitKat โ€œtrackerโ€ to help them try to recover the missing chocolates.

After thieves stole an entire truck containing more than 400,000 candy bars from a truck leaving an Italian production site late last month, Kit Kat suits decided to crack down.

Besides creating a Kit Kat tracker, they’re now using armored trucks with guards to accompany their delivery vans.
