For nearly 30 years the founders of Peace by Chocolate created and
shipped specialty treats all over the Middle East and Europe. Like much
of their homeland, in late 2012 the original family chocolate factory in
Damascus, Syria was destroyed in a bombing that
forced them to leave everything behind and flee to Lebanon.
For three years they found themselves as refugees with little
opportunity or hope. Their lives had been forever altered and they
dreamed of being able to once again live lives they could love. When the
family was invited to Canada, their dreams came true. With
the support of their new community of Antigonish, and the people of Nova
Scotia, they have rebuilt their chocolate company and are once again
doing the work they love.
