Company Background:
Florida Chocolate Inc. was first opened as a sole proprietor in 20x2 under the name Alexandria's Chocolates. The company produced 4 specialty chocolate products using an old family recipe, which only the owner, Alexandria Vierra, knows. The company started as a small homebased business.
In 20x4 Alexandria decided to expand the business, opened a factory in Ft. Lauderdale Florida and converted the business to a corporation named Florida Chocolate Inc. Due to the huge success of the business she decided to expand to Europe in 20x6, opening another factory in England. This factory is run by Alexandria's brother Nelson. The third factory was open in Brazil in 20x9 and is run by Alexandria's sister Laura.
