“We decided to open Chocolate Works in our local community because we were drawn to its fantastic products and its three tier business model that offers so much opportunity to bring happiness and joy to people’s lives,” said Stein. “Our families have been involved with selling franchises for over 15 years and this is the first franchise we purchased. We were attracted to the concept of Chocolate Works and so we jumped on the opportunity to open a chocolate factory in the community we live in.”
“Chocolate Works is more than just a chocolate store, it’s an experience. Customers can see the chocolate making process from beginning to end, participate in it and eat whatever they create,” added Levenberg. “We wanted to provide a place in the community where families and friends can come and indulge in life’s little pleasures. It’s thrilling and satisfying to be part of something that can provide so much wholesome pleasure to so many people.”
