NORMAN LOVE CONFECTIONS
Norman Love has been producing ultra-premium artisan chocolates
by hand inside a small shop in Fort Myers for the wholesale industry
since 2001. With an emphasis on artistry, premium ingredients, and
innovative fl avor combinations, the renowned chocolatier has earned
signifi cant national and international acclaim for his edible art.
Since opening 18 years ago, Norman Love Confections has grown
from a team of two, Norman and his wife, Mary Love, to a team of
more than 100 employees. With just a small 600-square-foot offi ce, they
quickly expanded the salon and production facility at the headquarters
off of Daniels Parkway, launching into the retail arena.
Chocolatiers use the fi nest ingredients and decorate the candies
with their own signature artistic fl ourish. Popular products include milk,
dark and white chocolate boxes, gift baskets and towers. They also offer
homemade cookie mix.
Chef Norman Love, president, owner and
founder, said, “I’m proud to say that our team
shares my dedication to the relentless pursuit
of innovation, excellent and quality, and
we’ve been able to grow without compromising
quality. Our business strategy is
simple and straightforward. We come to
work to be the best every day and to be
better than we were yesterday. We strive
to never get complacent and so our customers
can look forward to exciting new
developments to come.”
The company manufactures about 6.5
million chocolates annually.
“Since founding Norman Love Confections, we have received tremendous
national and international recognition, but it’s the local support
for our chocolates and my family that we celebrate as our greatest
achievement. When I see the long lines during the holidays, I can see
that the community supports and appreciates Norman Love Confections
and as a local business owner, that’s a tremendous feeling. That’s
why giving back and supporting more than 300 local charitable causes
every year has been a priority for us.”
