Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory Celebrates Grand Opening of New Charleston Prototype Store
DURANGO, Colo., Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is thrilled to announce the grand opening of its entirely new prototype store on King Street, taking place the weekend of November 13–15.
