Gaurav and Diksha Khanna is one of the three finalists in the micro business category for IEC Awards. The winner will be announced on 19th November at a Gala dinner in Sofitel
Branded Chocolates & Confectionery is one of the leading suppliers of corporate promotional chocolates and confectionery in the promotional product industry. The company won the prestigious Wyndham Business Award for the year 2016 under the Small Manufacturer category.
Beginning with only a handful of products, their range today boasts of over 500 products—everything from chocolates to macaroons and fortune cookies as well as custom printed packaging. Branded Chocolates & Confectionery has a network of over 1000 distributors all over Australia through which they sell their products to the corporate industry.
“After having established ourselves as one of the leading suppliers in the B2B sector, the plan is to enter the B2C sector and take our products into the retail market. The work on this expansion is in full swing with the launch happening within the next couple of months,” say founders, the husband-wife team of Gaurav and Diksha Khanna. “Our Eureka moment was when we discovered an incredible technology that could print on chocolate,” says Gaurab.
The company has been a keen supporter of ‘Special Olympics Australia’ donating a fixed amount each year to charity. Gaurav and Diksha have also established a not for profit organisation called ‘Celebrating Life’ to organise custom birthday parties for homeless and underprivileged and children in shelters. “We recently teamed up with Salvation Army and handed out macaroons printed with quotes of hope to the homeless at Werribee Station,” says Diksha.
Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.
Please consider making a contribution today.
Thank you for your support.
