About Thorntons

Since Thorntons was established by Joseph Thornton in 1911 in a small sweet shop, it has become a widely recognised brand with a reputation of superb quality, innovation, excellent customer service and the finest chocolate recipes from around the world. The Thorntons Ranges include diabetes, continental, children\'s, dessert, fudge, eden (the \'seductive\' range), fudge, servery (specially packaged gifts), organic collection, classics and toffee. Thorntons currently operates around 360 company owned stores and 215 franchises throughout the UK.

The Thorntons message is one of luxury, and top quality, and an innovative way that the company has taken chocolate from being a mere commodity, to a lifestyle experience is their weekend break which chocolate lovers can attend at the Hilton hotel. Master chocolatiers give guests a range of chocolate workshops, afternoon activities and evening entertainment. Visitors will also be given sweet samples, chocolate fountains, and the chance to create chocolate sculptures.

The Thorntons website reflects the luxury of the company\'s chocolate ranges, beautifully presented in chocolatey, rich colours. The website includes interesting information such as the origins of chocolate, the art of chocolate making and tips on how to taste a chocolate. The site sells all the vast ranges of chocolate, as well as greetings cards, hampers, personalised gifts, corporate gifts and even a wedding service.

The site offers a brochure service, highlighting the fact that this company does nothing by halves, but also offers half price spring sales so that everyone can have the opportunity to enjoy the chocolate of these market leaders. With hundreds of Thorntons stores around the country, the website features a useful instant store locator which gives searchers contact details and a link to multimap.com. As almost half of these stores are franchises, there is a section of the website describing how this works, and how prospective shop owners would like to get involved in the trade of this luxury chocolate.
