Mayor Ray Thompson said Lithgow City Council was very proud to partner with Ferrero to support Tourism in Lithgow and to highlight the 'hero' products that are manufactured here.
"This is a win for tourists, a win for Ferrero and a win for Lithgow as we continue to market and promote our destination," he said.
Ferrero's story began in the town of Alba, Italy, in 1946. Ferrero has grown from a patisserie store to become one of the world's largest confectionery companies, employing over 40,000 people across 55 countries. The Lithgow factory was the first factory Ferrero launched outside of its origins in Italy.
