About this company

Established in 1989, our journey began in Monmore Green, inspiring our name and passion for quality confectionery. Originally focusing on bulk and pick-and-mix sweets, our dedication to excellence soon outgrew our humble beginnings. In our pursuit of innovation, we relocated to a spacious warehouse on Oxford Street, Bilston, West Midlands. We introduced a multi-head vertical bagging machine to launch our pre-packed sharing bag range. Sustained by its success and driven by our commitment to meeting demand, we expanded further, acquiring a 20,000 sq ft premises on Loxdale Street, Bilston.
