Commenting on Crispy Chocolate’s 50th anniversary, PMC executive director, Andrew Khoo, said: “For a home-grown chocolate brand to celebrate this milestone is a very proud moment for us. It is a testament to Crispy’s enduring brand value in a competitive field dominated by established international brands.

Khoo noted that, internationally, fewer than 10 chocolate brands have had a history of 50 years or longer.

Crispy chocolate owes its success to its unique malty taste made of the finest malt, quality cocoa and with oven-roasted rice cereal, making it not just another tasty snack, but wholesome as well.
