Sharma & Sharma

Sharma & Sharma was a chocolate factory owned by Jai Sharma. It was established in 2009 by brothers Jai and Nikhil Sharma, and attracted many of the villagers left unemployed when Eric Pollard had to shut his factory.
The factory no longer exists, as a fire in August 2019, started by Kerry Wyatt and Amy Wyatt caused it to shut down. Due to this, Jai was forced to sell a large share of the business to Kim Tate, who persuaded Nicola King to sell her 1% share to her business partner, Al Chapman. Kim and Al together owned over half of the business and could therefore overrule Jai in making decisions. The factory was not reopened, and Hawksford Outdoor Pursuits is now located on the grounds of the factory.
