Haulier Jack Richards and Son is offering a £5,000 reward to catch thieves who made away with 25 pallets of chocolate from its yard in Lostock, Cheshire.
The Fakenham, Norfolk-based firm is offering the cash reward in response to the theft on 2 March. Thieves raided the yard on Griffiths Road and stole a load of Boost and Bounty
bars valued at £100,000.
Security staff saw a tractor unit making a getaway at 9.40pm and the firm believes the thieves slipped into the compound unnoticed behind lorries coming in to load up.
Company spokesman Peter Brown says: "We are not going to take this lying down because it could affect our relationship with customers and we could lose business."
Anyone with any information should contact the Northwich Specialist Investigation Unit on 01244 613254.
