Growth/Expansion:
The immediate growth of revenue is caused by the returning corporate customers hurt by the pandemic, such as wineries, wedding planners, museums, airport shops, non-profit event organizers.

• customers can either confectionary buyers or branding customers
• manufacturing of chocolate products is local
• design of packaging is local or with in-house program
