Russell Stover Chocolates is the nation’s leading manufacturer of boxed chocolates and the third largest American chocolate manufacturer. The company’s three brands – Russell Stover, Whitman’s and Pangburn’s - account for more than 60 percent of all boxed chocolate sales in the United States through nearly 30 company-owned retail stores and 70,000 wholesale accounts generating more than $500 million in annual revenue. After nearly 100 years in operation the company manufactures approximately 100 million pounds of chocolate candies each year in its proud tradition of being “Made in America” and “Handcrafted in Small Batches”. In September 2014, Russell Stover was acquired by Lindt and Sprungli, the world leader in premium chocolates. This was the largest acquisition in the history of Lindt and Sprungli which has operations in over 40 countries across the globe. Russell Stover joins sister companies Lindt USA and Ghirardelli to form a powerful confectionery triad in North America.
