Franklin Fountain Takes Over Shane Candies

The owners of retro-licious ice cream shop Franklin Fountain are expanding their empire of sweets: brothers Eric and Ryan Berley have bought Shane Candies, just a few doors down the block at 110 Market Street. They’re keeping the name and keeping the candy concept, with plans to install their ice cream-making facility upstairs from the shop. Renovations and suchlike are part of the deal as well, with an expectation that everything will be up and running by October. [Philly Insider]
