Peter, our granddad and founder of the Granite State Candy Shoppe, came to Lawrence, Massachusetts in 1909 from the Greek Island of Lesvos.
In Lawrence, Peter found a job as a candy maker where he learned the trade and honed his skills.  Several years later he moved to Concord,
found an old building on Warren St and started making candies the old fashioned way. In the time honored tradition of our grandfather Peter
we still use many of his original recipes and candy making techniques and equipment.  He and his wife raised a wonderful family of five children.
Two sons, Costa and George, took over when Peter retired, followed by grandsons Mike and Jeff.
