French Broad Chocolate in NC asks on Instagram "would you buy some of our chocolate" as they detail inventory available to fund their business until production is restored.
A post on Instagram by @frenchbroadchocolate in Asheville details the effects of Helene:
"Asheville has been devastated by floods from Hurricane Helene. It is heartbreaking to see lives, livelihoods, businesses, and homes destroyed by this catastrophic event.
Dan and I watched in horror as cars and telephone poles floated by our Chocolate Factory, and began to lap at the front door. Fortunately, our team’s preparation in sandbagging prevented most of the water from breaching. The water rose to 39” up our front door.
What now? Critical utilities (water, power) must be restored before we can start making chocolate again. This could take weeks. We’ve got a long hard road ahead of us. Humbly, we could use your support.
Would you buy some of our chocolate?
We have lots of inventory on hand at our Distribution Center, which didn’t experience any flooding. Selling it will help us fund the business while we wait to re-establish operations. We can start shipping next week. Join us at frenchbroadchocolates.com and pick out something(s) for yourself and your loved ones. We appreciate you so very much."
