Necco, the country’s oldest continuous candy producer, has suddenly shuddered production. In May, Round Hill Investments LLC purchased the company, which is known for producing wafers and candy hearts, a bankruptcy auction, but sold it again in a deal that finalized Tuesday. The firm announced that it has decided to sell the brands to another national confection manufacturer and today announced the closure of the operations in Revere, Massachusetts. The buyer has not been named, nor whether or not they will produce the infamous candy again.
