This tidbit came via our site feedback form:
“I am the category manager (buyer) for candy for pick n save and copps stores. I can share two things. 1) All of our stores carry candy raisins, it’s a great seller and 2) in my conversations with NECCO they tell me they DO intend to continue manufacturing them.”
This is great potential news. But until we hear something directly from the New England Candy Company, we’ll keep our efforts going. Keep forwarding our site to everyone you know. And check back for the latest developments.
