When you think of Candy, think of Jr? and remem- ber also that Candy is a food—a necessity, not a luxury. HARDIE BROTHERS COMPANY Hardie Brothers Company, manufacturers of candy, was organized in 1901, having succeeded their father, James Hardie, who had been in the biscuit and candy business in Pittsburgh since 1870. The father having sold out the biscuit portion of his business to the National Biscuit Company, the sons took over the candy business and gradually expanded until today they utilize over five acres of floor space devoted exclusively to the making of candy. The following directors are all actively engaged in the management of the business: Edward Hardie, Walter L. Hardie, James Hardie, Jr., John L. Hardie, Alexander Hardie, and S. D. McGlumphy. The latest improved machinery is used in turning out their“product, and the average daily production is 150,000 Ibs. of finished goods, employing over five hundred people. They make an extensive line of penny goods, much sought after by the children, 5¢ and 10c bar items, package and bulk x00ds which is sold exclusively to the jobbing trade. The very best materials are used in the making of candy and it may be truly termed a “World Product” where the greater portion of ingredients used are secured from many foreign markets such as Cocoa and Vanilla Beans, which are used in making chocolate coating, come from Africa, Brazil, Trinidad, Venezuela and Mexico, as well as nuts and fruits, favoring oils, etc; coming from such: countries as France, Spain, Italy, Turkey and China and many other countries, as well as cane sugar from Cuba and Porto Rico.
