Most people would imagine that a small start-up business owned by two young entrepreneurs could never have survived the onslaught and aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown, but Sugar Rush Sweeties in Leeds (UK) is one success story that not only began shortly before the onset of the pandemic but surprisingly grew and expanded during this economically precarious time.
When asked what aspects contribute to the success of this young enterprise, Harry Lynch (co-owner) stated that several key factors could be highlighted, but one of the main reasons for its success is attributed to the loyal support of both local and online clients.

“My partner Tayla Lynch and I started selling sweets locally on a small scale at first, merely to supplement our income so it will meet our travelling expenses. We were both working solid jobs when we founded Sugar Rush Sweeties in 2019, yet we began making travel plans for 2020 and we needed a supplementary income. When Covid-19 hit, our travel plans were placed on hold, and we both found ourselves without our steady incomes too, so the only thing we could fall back onto, was selling sweets,” Harry said.

“Apart from our sweets shop in Leeds, which as a result of the lockdown had to close temporarily, we also decided to enter the online market during this time. This is actually the start of our success story, as our business has grown tremendously during this time. At Sugar Rush Sweeties, we offer a large selection of sweet treats, and we sell anything from fizzy sweets online, to imported sweets and cold drinks. We even cater for vegetarians, and you can buy for £2 or less from our online store. We are currently the leading pick and mix sweets shop in the UK,” he proudly added.
Sugar Rush Sweeties is more than a candy store, but is a tangible business that offers a delicious product for everyone's taste. On top of that, their products are affordable, and they even offer three different pricing plans for subscribed members. Based on the chosen plan, a sweets pack is then made up and delivered to the client.
You can learn more about this rapidly expanding business and the sweet variety they have to offer by visiting their jam-packed website, but they are also happy to assist consumers over the phone or by email. Alternatively, you can visit this leading sweet store at Unit 1, Sycamore Court, Lotherton Way, Garforth, Leeds to stock up on your favourite treats.

About us
Sugar Rush Sweeties, owned and operated by Harry Lynch and Tayla Harris, is the UK's leading pick & mix sweets shop, and now also offers the widest assortment of sweets to online clients. During the Covid-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdown, our company grew to become one of the largest counter and internet sweet dealers in Yorkshire. It all started as an idea in October 2019, while we were both working full-time in teaching and banking but decided we were going to travel. We decided that we should raise some additional money to supplement our travel money by selling sweets to local residents, however, the pandemic cancelled our vacation plans, and as a result, we were also no longer employed full-time. So, we devoted all of our time and effort to Sugar Rush Sweeties. With our tasty and delicious selection of sweets, and affordable plans, you will be able to fill your ‘sugar rush prescription' in no time. Sugar Rush is constantly expanding and owes its sweet success to online support. We invite you to visit our website at http://www.sugarrushsweeties.co.uk to discover what all the fuss is about.
