New shop hoping for a sweet taste of success

A new independent sweet shop, Sweet Beans, has opened at The Valley this week.

Sweet Beans have created a brand and experience for chocolate and sweet lovers of all ages. Fudge is made in-store, and shoppers can pick from just about any traditional sweet they can think of, from army & navy to pear drops and liquorice allsorts to bonbons.  

Neil Bloxham, Owner of Sweet Beans, said:

"I've absolutely loved my first week, seeing the pure joy and happiness on people's faces as they walk into the shop has been fantastic".

 Phil Maclean, Marketing Director at The Valley, added:

"We've been blown away by the interest that has been generated by the Sweets Beans, by both our social media channels and those enjoying the brilliant sweets in person. Independents like Sweet Beans add an important dimension to the visitor experience, and we wish Neil and his team the very best of success."
