Ann's Story
Initially setting up a chocolate manufacturing facility in Dublin in 1999, Ann always wanted to bring chocolate, jobs and prosperity back to the small but beautiful village of Stradone, Co. Cavan in Ireland. This dream came through in 2007, when on the back of signing up a number of key clients, Ann started to expand family business premise in Stradone. Today, the facility is coming to the end of its third transformation, expanding to increase capability.
