Greeting Chocolates Gift Business

 
Hot Zone Elite Directory Opportunities Under 25K Resources

New technology revolutionizing the way you eat chocolates

Your customers will be delighted by and love this new line of chocolate products immediately.

Advances in chocolate laser technology (globally patented) now allow our OEM producers (i.e., contract manufacturers) to print any pictures, photos, words, etc onto chocolates, using only chocolates.

In contrast to traditional processes that use edible inks or a process known as transfer, what you will get from us are crispy clear messages and greetings---made of chocolates---that are printed directly onto chocolates.

Yes, all in delicious chocolates---NOT mixed with edible inks or the likes.

Eat chocolates meaningfully

Consumers now realize that eating chocolates for the sake of just eating them can be boring. This is changing. Your customers can now slowly savor the meanings and messages that come with the chocolates as they eat them, rather than gobble them down quickly and compulsively.

"I love you", "I miss you", "thank you", "sorry please forgive me", "happy birthday". These are but some of the common messages that your customers can have, and eat them too.

And for those who simply want some self-motivation,they may compose their gift boxes with the refreshing messages they want most and send the boxes to themselves as gifts.

Creating excitement in customers when they buy chocolates

Your customers can now enjoy the thrills of choosing the chocolate greetings they want and compose their unique gift boxes

Manufactured in shapes including square, circle, octagon, and heart each measuring 50mmx50mmx6mm, these dainty chocolate pieces can be packed into gift boxes measuring 100mmx100mm (length and width), 200mmx200mm, 100mmx200mm, 300mmx300mm, 100mmx300mm, 200mmx300mm, or larger sizes easily. (Please contact your local gift box suppliers about your requirements.)

We have over 100 chocolate designs and messages so your customers will not run out of choice easily.

And better still, you can come up with your own chocolate designs and messages and we will have them produced for you specifically on an OEM (i.e., contract manufacturing) basis (an additional fee of US$100 per design is applicable here).

Packing the gift boxes with our mouthwatering greeting chocolates

If the gift boxes are deep enough, say, 18 mm in height, multiple layers of chocolate pieces can be placed in the boxes. (Please contact your local gift box suppliers about your requirements.)

Our chocolate pieces are 6 mm thick each individually packed ex factory---easy for the mouth!

The flexibility afforded by the size of our chocolates and the various sizes of your gift boxes mean customers have a virtually unlimited number of ways to pick and arrange the greetings they want.

They lay the chocolate pieces in the boxes in the exact manner they can imagine.

For example, if a customer chooses to use a 200mmx200mm box to hold one layer of chocolates, he/she can select 16 greeting chocolates each measuring 50mmx50mmx6mm.

As another example, a customer opting for the 300mmx300mm gift box may fill it up with 36 pieces of the 50mmx50mmx6mm chocolates (one single layer).

What the customers pick to fill the gift boxes are what they get. They can't get any better deal than this.

As a retailer you may want to provide gift wraps and ribbons to add value to your services. We do not dictate in any way what you should do as a reseller.

Handling chocolates

Chocolates are not that difficult to handle. With the following tips (not exhaustive) you should be able to handle them on your own, thus avoiding the need to operate this business as a franchisee and pay high royalties and other fees. (In other words, keep all the profits for yourself.)

• Store chocolates in a cool, dry and dark place at 15 to 18ºC and 65% or lower humidity.

• Chocolates melt at about 36 degree C (yes, in your month, for example; this may vary depending on the actual contents of the chocolate pieces). So, be sure to operate your business in a temperature-controlled environment of 25 degree C or below.

• The shelf life may be up to 1 year when stored optimally and less than a year if deviated from the optimal storage conditions. Specific expiry rates vary depending on the storage environment.

• Chocolates are susceptible to picking up odors, so your chocolates should not mix with other foods with strong odors.

• Our chocolates are all individually packed ex factory. But this is no guarantee that they won't pick up odors.

• You may want to consider packages opened by customers as sold, else please discard them as damaged chocolates may compromise your reputation. Alternatively, place your merchandise in temperature/humidity-controlled display cabinets to avoid mishandling by customers.

Buy and resell arrangement

Although we place this advertisement at a franchise website, we expect fewer than a handful of our audience would want to be controlled by us as a franchisee. But if you do want franchise as your mode of operation, then please contact us separately. We would then get the necessary work done to meet state and federal laws that may be applicable to your location. Otherwise, we will simply sell you the merchandise at wholesale prices and you resell them as an independent business.

No strings attached. Simply sell the chocolates in the best possible way you prefer.

No using our trademarks

We may print our (or our contract manufacturers') trademarks on our chocolate products. However, you are not allowed to use the trademarks in any other way to operate your business.

Exclusive territories

In general we will sell to any resellers who wish to buy and resell our products in any territory.

At your request and on a first come first served basis, however, we may give up our rights of selling in any territory or city for a fee starting at US$1 per day. The fee is payable on an annual basis (no refund). Please inquire separately.

One standard package to start and get going today

Because of our simple buy-and-resell arrangement, you don't have any waiting time and other requirements a typical franchisee would have to face and contend with.

Simply order and start selling these exciting greeting chocolates now.

Your merchandise will arrive in corrugated boxes with "ice bricks" in padded envelopes each holding 320 pieces of 50mmx50mmx6mm greeting chocolates.

Your total order should be in multiples of 320 pieces of 50mmx50mmx6mm chocolates.

Your total cost for 320 pieces of 50mmx50mmx6mm chocolates would be about US$576 (about US$1.80 per piece). At a retail price of, say, US$2.50 per piece, your gross profit from the box would be about US$224.

You decide the retail price. If you sell the merchandise at US$2.90 apiece, then your gross profit from a foam box would be US$352.

For a moderately busy store serving, say, 40 customers per day each purchasing four pieces of the 50mmx50mmx6mm chocolates, the turnover will be 40 x 4 = 160 pieces per day. The right starting order size should be about 10,000 pieces. This will last you 10,000/160 = 62.5 days. Because each order will take about three weeks (two weeks for production and packing and three days for airfreight) to deliver, you simply reorder 5,000 pieces every one month to replenish your stock subsequently..

Patented technology

It is our policy not to discuss technical details because we are not the owners of the patented technology. Our chocolate products are produced by our OEM producers (i.e., contract manufacturers) who have bought licenses from the patent owners to carry out the production. Currently, our OEM producers are located in Southeastern USA.

Return policy

Because chocolates are perishable merchandise, we don't accept returned goods.

However, if you encounter any problems when the merchandise arrives at your doorstep or when you make a thorough check on arrival, please make it known to the shipping company staff who delivers the goods immediately. You are advised to file a claim with the shipping company right from there on.

Who should have this business

• Individuals intending to start a new retail business selling an easy-to-handle and interesting product that customers will be thrilled to buy.

• Existing retailers who want to add a product line to their offerings.

• Home-based people who want to operate a business from home.

We will only be responsible to ship your orders to you. You will be responsible to meet all legal and other requirements including paying all your bills to operate your business.

Contact us now and we will send you the paperwork required and over 100 chocolate designs and messages to choose from to get you started. This is a truly ground floor opportunity not to be missed.
