Peter Paul Halajian first operated candy stores in Torrington and Naugatuck, Connecticut. Then his brother-in-law, Calvin K. Kazanjian, came up with the idea of not selling candy retail, but actually manufacturing their own candy and selling it wholesale. They found a circle of fellow Armenians, George Shamlian, Jacob Hagopian, Harry Kazanjian and Jacob Chouljian who all helped put up the initial money to start. They figured they couldn't get far without someone who knew how to make candy, so they brought in candy maker, Harry Tatigian.
