Birnn Chocolates of Vermont, Inc. celebrates 100 years
Family-owned producer and seller of fine chocolates reaches new milestone
When Charles “Pop” Birnn began experimenting with confections in 1915 in Highland Park, New Jersey, he couldn’t have known for sure if the business would be a success — but, 100 years later, it certainly seems that way.
Now Birnn Chocoloates, which is celebrating its centennial anniversary, has transformed from a single retail and manufacturing location to 12 retail stores in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. It is currently a wholesale only chocolate truffle manufacturing facility in Vermont with retail customers nationwide.
