And as if that wasn’t enough, Mars Chocolate has been presented with another award, from the Slough Business Community Partnership.

Kay was presented with the award by one of the deputy Lord Lieutenants of Berkshire – otherwise much better known to Mars Chocolate associates as Gordon Storey, who retired four years ago.
