As a part of Martin Parr’s extensive body of work exploring the richness and diversity of the Black Country – Black Country Stories – Martin Parr produced four films; this DVD presents Teddy Gray’s Sweet Factory, commissioned by Multistory.
This quaint documentary explores the life and working practice of Teddy Gray’s, a traditional sweet factory manufacturer in Dudley that still produces all confectionary by hand. Established in 1826, Teddy Gray’s has always been a family owned and run business. Five generations have worked and contributed towards the business of keeping the traditional, hand-made methods of sweet making alive.
