А range of sweets was rather limited: sugar coated caramel, gingerbread, biscuits, candy dots. The volume of production ranged from 2 to 5 tons per day, while a number of employees didn’t exceed 60 people.

In addition to the main production the factory also manufactured pasta products and gingerbread. Sugar products were manufactured on the stove in open boilers and pans. Caramel stamping was a manual process. The finished products were packed in cotton and paper bags and shipped to the store network.
