Sweet success for chocolate firm

Fosters Chocolates in Craigavon have created a number of new temporary jobs to fulfil an order from Sainsbury's for its 350 UK-wide stores. 

With its unique longer lasting recipe the Fosters toffee apple is being stocked by the national chain as part of its Halloween range. 

Fosters team has been working around the clock to deliver orders for toffee, resulting in an increase in business on the same period last year and creating a number of additional posts. 

Sarah Dougan aged 4 from Newtownhamilton tucks tests the merchandise under the watchful eye of Derek Foster, manager, Fosters Chocolates and David McMahon from Sainsbury's regional sourcing team
