CandyFavorites.com, backed by McKeesport Candy Co., America's Oldest Wholesale Candy Company has been selling retro candy long before it was considered retro.
PITTSBURGH, PA (PRWEB) April 14, 2015 -- "We are not old, we're experienced," chuckled Jon H. Prince, third generation owner of the internet's oldest wholesale candy store, "I recently stumbled upon a 58 year old article by the now defunct Welch Candy Company highlighting our early history and it dawned on me that we have offered many candies long before they were considered retro or before they were acquired by major brands such as Hershey, Mars or Tootsie Roll Industries."
"Few companies have been blessed with our longevity and over the years we have offered many confections that have gone on to become truly iconic. We have a unique opportunity to provide customers with a reliable source for purchasing hard to find candies allowing them to relive nostalgic moments. "
The company was one of the first wholesalers to offer Brach's Candy as well as Clark Bars, Junior Mints and Sugar Babies and has remained at the forefront of the wholesale candy industry for 89 years.
" With retro candy, you are selling memories," says Tom Griffin, General Manager, who is in his 43rd year of employment, "people go to lengths to find links to childhood or an era when life was easier."
"You can shop for nostalgic candy by brand, color or decades and we just introduced an infographic complimenting our history of candy section." says Jonah Half, Director of Marketing. "We take pride in our products and preserving traditions started nine decades ago."
