Hotel Chocolat features in Channel 4 Series

It’s good to see one of Penmann’s key customers featuring in a Channel 4 TV series which charts the growth and success of the business, showcasing their ethical programmes, including how they help Ghana’s cocoa farmers.

We are really pleased to be associated with this go ahead, quality led business which is going from strength to strength with 50 chocolate shops, cafe’s, restaurants and even a cocoa estate hotel.

Hotel Chocolat commissioned us due to our unrivalled expertise in creating and maintaining optimum chocolate manufacturing environments that ensure perfect cooling and conditioning for their huge range of chocolate products.

James Clayton, Engineering Services Manager had this to say: “This project was my first experience of working with Penmann and I found them to be extremely knowledgeable and flexible, particularly at design stage. The project delivery was very good with great attention to detail paid to the design, overseen by an exceptional project management team. The build quality was excellent. We would certainly use Penmann again on future projects”.

Great feedback!

We also cool and condition chocolate and chocolate-coated products for a number of producers. Read more here
