Sanders & Morley Candy Makers recently signed a lease to occupy additional warehouse space in Macomb Township, Mich.
 
The 38,361-sq.-ft. facility will provide Sanders with the much-needed space it requires for storage and supplies as sales continue to rapidly increase.
 
“We’re so proud of the tremendous growth we’ve been experiencing for the last decade,” says Brian Jefferson, chairman and ceo of Sanders & Morley Candy Makers. “This new warehouse space will certainly help put us in a position to continue this forward momentum.”
 
In addition to leasing this latest warehouse space, in the last four years Sanders also has purchased property adjacent to its main production facility, leased an additional 50,000-sq.-ft. distribution center, implemented new cloud-based ERP software, added new key employees to its executive leadership team, upgraded its telephone system, added multiple new production lines and installed a new 500-gallon caramel cooking kettle.
 
“Throughout every stage of our growth, we’ve made it a priority to partner with other Michigan companies and find Michigan workers whenever possible,” Jefferson says. “It’s a great to feeling to help push the Michigan economy forward and create jobs for more Metro Detroit residents.”
 
Sanders’ administrative and production operations will remain at the company's main office at 23770 Hall Rd., and its distribution center will remain at 22800 Hall Rd. in Clinton Township, Michigan.
 
Sanders is a classic national brand featuring premium chocolates, dessert toppings and baked goods using original recipes dating far back as 1875.
