The new owners have said they will retain the Thorntons retail and fuel brands, and that the joint-venture partnership will accelerate Thorntons' growth and expand its footprint.
The chain’s fresh-food options include hot and cold selections for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thorntons also offers a selection of hot and cold beverages, as well as produce and select grocery items.
