About Nassau Candy

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Nassau Candy is one of the largest US wholesale manufacturers of specialty and private label confections, supplying many of the national retailers and independent stores across the country. From our Hicksville, New York–based factory, we create millions of pounds of confections every year — including chocolate covered raisins, Jordan almonds, fudge, fruit slices, chocolate pretzels, and hand-dipped cherries. All are certified Triangle K kosher. We also roast our own nuts, allowing us to offer a full line of trail mixes and nuts. In addition to Nassau Candy-made creations, we import and distribute the most sought-after confectionery, soda, gourmet food, and natural brands, including health, beauty and household care. This vast range of 20,000+ skus puts Nassau Candy in a unique position to fulfill virtually any specialty need. With our headquarters, distribution, and manufacturing facilities in New York and distribution centers in Florida, Michigan, Texas, and California, Nassau Candy is able to offer industry-leading cost effective, on-time delivery. While we have grown in size and structure over the last 80+ years, we’re proud to say Nassau Candy is still a multigenerational, family-owned business.
