Sweets at Trade Prices for Events

Companies that organise events are always on the look-out for something a bit different and sweets have become a popular category to consider. Sourcing sweets at wholesale prices to use as part of the event can prove very worthwhile and Hancocks are now helping many businesses with just this requirement, whilst also offering a number of solutions for fun display stands.

Established confectionery specialist and sweet wholesaler, Hancocks has been the UK's premium confectionery wholesaler since 1962. The company, which sells thousands of sweets and chocolates from 20 UK cash and carries in addition to online, can provide all of the tools and ideas that event planners require where confectionery is concerned.

Jonathan Summerley, Hancocks purchasing director comments: "Many event planning companies use Hancocks for a particular style or theme of sweet, knowing that we can deliver anything from a box to a pallet. Others find our display stands very useful and most notably, our 20 bin pick and mix stand that can provide plenty of interactive fun at any event, whether for adults or children. For larger events we can also offer our exclusive Jelly Bean Dreams stand and our Pucker Powder stand for more confectionery fun". 

Hancocks has previously supplied pick and mix sweets stands to all manner of corporate events developed for many types of business including banking groups, promotional companies and bespoke event planners. The metal framed stand houses 20 slow close perspex bins and is supplied with 20 bulk bags of different top selling sweets, a selection of paper bags, scoops and colourful graphics. A plain white pick and mix stand is also available for businesses that wish to present the display with their own branding and colours.

Old favourites such as Jelly Beans, Jelly Babies, Fizzy Bottles, Dolly Mixtures, Wine Gums, Liquorice Allsorts, Bonbons, and Chocolate Raisins are all great pick and mix sweets to display in the stand and create conversation at an event.

"All ages and types of people love sweets and they are great ice-breakers at any event. We all have our favourites and the sight and smell of a colourful, laden pick and mix stand will always make people smile. At Hancocks, we stock the largest range of pick and mix sweets in the UK and so we are sure to have a selection to suit every event or occasion", concludes Summerley.

Found in the ‘Sweet Stands' category of Hancocks' recently revamped ecommerce website, along with a number of other interactive stands, the Hancocks pick and mix stand is a great value way to create a professional looking display at any function.
