Slave-free chocolate brand hoax about bourse listing

September 26, 2017

On Tuesday DutchNews.nl reported on a story about Tony’s Factory, owner of an allegedly slave-free brand of chocolate, planning a stock exchange launch.

This story, which was announced in a press release, later transpired to be a hoax.

We are very sorry that we inadvertently misled our readers and condemn the spreading of fake news by companies in search of cheap publicity.
