shops all over Moscow.In 1889 he erected a new building to replace the old factory in Bersenyevskaya Embankment. The assortment of sweet things produced bythe factory in those years was wide and included chocolate with meat extract,glazed fruits, pickles, semi-finished products for other confectioneries andmany other things.
