Good luck to him! :D

a cynic would say the parents are running the company, and the son supposedly running it is just a unique marketing angle

indeed matty - great PR angle isn't it - so long as it doesn't get overused of course.

I know he's dyslexic, but someone could have spell checked the company name! :p

Story is that because he learns to spell by using phonics, that is how chocalate should be spelt. Great idea with the choc box. But agree that if a 47 year old came up with this the supermarkets would probably not be interested.
