Description:
b.a. Sweetie Candy Company, located in Cleveland, Ohio, began as Bag A Sweet Candy Company in 1950, founded by brothers-in-law Frank Stansny and Al Tokar. Initially operating from Tokar's basement, they specialized in bagging bulk candy before moving to a Brookpark Road location. In 1982, Tom and Judi Scheiman purchased the company, and in the early 1990s, they rebranded it as b.a. Sweetie Candy Company, retaining the original initials to honor its roots. Under their leadership, the company expanded significantly, relocating in 2015 to its current five-acre campus, which includes Sweetie's Soda Shoppe and Sweetie's Golfland Park. Today, it stands as America's largest candy store, boasting over 4,500 different items and maintaining an average inventory of 500,000 pounds of candy.
