Seroogy’s Chocolate, a beloved institution in northeast Wisconsin, marked a significant milestone this week, celebrating 125 years of operation.
“It’s a very proud day for us,” owner Joe Seroogy said during the event.
“We have the best chocolate in the world … Putting it modestly” Seroogy said when asked about the secret to the company’s longevity.
The celebration Saturday not only highlighted the company’s history but also the dedication of its employees.
“It’s really special,” long time employee Sarah Sefur said. “Not a lot of companies get to stay open for 125 years, so it’s a great feeling. It’s really cool.”
