Brown & Haley Candy Co. Celebrates 100 Years of ALMOND ROCA® with Grand Unveiling of Iconic Neon Clock Sign.
Brown & Haley Candy is thrilled to announce the Celebration of the 100th Birthday of its most famous brand, ALMOND ROCA®. This momentous occasion will take place on October 10, 2023, at 11 a.m., right outside the historic Brown & Haley Candy factory located in Tacoma, Washington.
As part of the Centennial Celebration, Anne Haley, the current Chairman (and granddaughter of founder JC Haley), will unveil the newly rebuilt 9-foot by 9-foot historical neon clock sign. This iconic ALMOND ROCA® clock has been an integral part of both Brown & Haley’s history and the Tacoma community for over 80 years. It was temporarily taken down earlier this year as part of a building upgrade, and its return symbolizes a powerful reconnection to the brand’s rich heritage.
“We are immensely proud to have reached this milestone in ALMOND ROCA’s history,” said John Melin, President & CEO at Brown & Haley Candy. “The ALMOND ROCA brand has delighted the taste buds of generations and become a symbol of confectionery excellence worldwide. Our historic neon sign serves as a beacon of ALMOND ROCA’s enduring commitment to quality and tradition.”
Members of the media, the local community, and ALMOND ROCA enthusiasts are invited to join Brown & Haley for this joyous occasion. Witness the unveiling of the sign, experience the rich history of ALMOND ROCA®, and celebrate a century of sweet success with Brown & Haley.
