By purchasing Sour Punch products, you are also helping us contribute to the greater good – candy with a conscience. American Licorice Company is committed to improving our manufacturing processes to reduce environmental impact by tracking greenhouse gas emissions from our two U.S facilities. We purchase carbon offsets for greenhouse gas emissions as well as invest in Green-e Energy Certified Renewable Energy Certificates that are sourced from wind energy facilities in the lower 48 states.
We also invest in a brighter future for our local communities. American Licorice Company employees contributed over 2,000 hours of volunteer service last year and donated more than 20,000 backpacks full of school supplies over the last six years through our partnership with the Kids in Need Foundation.
