How I Started A $500K Chocolate Company In NYC | The Ground Up

Founder & CEO Jessica Spaulding won $15,000 from the New York StartUP! Business Plan Competition in September 2015. Days later, she launched her company Harlem Chocolate Factory. In 2020, Oprah Winfrey reached out to Jessica to include her chocolate in the Oprah's Favorite Things holiday list. In just 6 weeks, the Harlem Chocolate Factory shipped out 90,000 pounds of chocolate. Since that time, the company has earned an average of $500,000 a year in revenue.
