Beloved Candy Company Closing Major Store Sunday After Three Decades
Longstanding nationwide candy chain See's Candies is shutting down one of its popular California locations after three decades.
See's Candies, which opened its first store in Los Angeles more than 100 years ago, is closing its Sunnyvale, California outpost on Sunday, the Mercury News first reported. The store was quite established in the area, with one customer telling the Mercury News it was "like losing an old friend."
"The See's Candies chocolate shop in Sunnyvale, CA sells our American-made delicious candies and chocolates," says the official See's Candies website. "It is the same shop you know and love - also specializing in bulk sales and fundraising. The best chocolate and candy in Sunnyvale can be found at See's Candies where you always get a free sample and friendly customer service."
This particular See's Candies outlet was "a Volume Savings shop" specializing in bulk orders and gifts.
"We also have staff on site to help you plan your next fundraiser or establish a group discount for your group or organization," the website says. "We, of course, also have the delicious candies that we are famous for, like our boxed chocolates, truffles, nuts and chews, lollipops, and sugar free candy."
See's Candies, which was founded over a century ago by businessman Charles Alexander See and is headquartered in South San Francisco these days, still has hundreds of storefronts throughout California and other locations throughout the United States.
Several outlets reached out to the official See's Candies corporation for comment on the closing of the Sunnyvale location, but it does not appear the company provided any comment.
For residents of Sunnyvale and neighboring communities, the closest See's storefront is now in Santa Clara.
Overall, several stores remain open throughout the South Bay area.
