Carole Wright said: “I worked there for five years. The job was awful. Very boring. But the people I worked with - well that’s a different matter. The social life was fantastic. Denise Lohman said: “My dad worked there in the late 70s and then again in the 80s. He was a shop steward.”
The most recent four-storey building was built in 1954 with renovation, including new offices, taking place in 2000. Sean Connolly said: “My mum worked there when we were small children, as an extra job to buy our Christmas presents.” Cola then extended the range of flavours even more, Chewits introduced a Sour range and now, there’s a whole variety of flavours. And not just for the Chews, but also for the Juicy Bites, and the Xtreme Range. Jo Barton said: “I used to love driving past the Chewit factory on Virginia Street and smelling strawberry Chewits, it was a tiny slice of heaven and I was gutted when the factory was closed down!”

Angela Rawstorne said: “My mother used to work there and she had an accident once she poured hot toffee on her hands!” Cheryl Hindley said: “I too worked at this delicious emporium of filling enducing fabulousness. I had my 16th birthday there and remember other work colleagues clubbing together to present me with a lovely card and a very beautiful silver bracelet.
Don’t forget about your fluffy friends! Give them something to chew on with our dog chews. Some of them will help your dog’s dental health, while others are just delicious. Lorraine Dewhurst said: “We used to live across the road. Always got a bag of toffee for the kids.” “I used to love driving past and smelling strawberry Chewits, it was a tiny slice of heaven" Justin Jarrett said: “Southport has lost most of its working class past, like the gasometer and lost most of its nightclubs like the Kingsway.” "We would like to thank the consumers for keeping Chewits alive in the heart of the UK”I was on fizzy Chewits and the highlight was getting M&S double Devon rejects from the factory shop.” The former Leaf UK Chewits factory on Virginia Street in Southport is demolished, on February 26, 2008.
