Kilwins Sweets Shop Franchise Opens on Congress Street
Portsmouth, NH – While the recently opened downtown Kilwins is one of about a hundred franchise locations across the country, this one is very much a family affair.
“I’m a native of New Hampshire and have always worked in retail for a family,” said Janette Desmond, owner of the franchise. “When my brother, who works in the corporate offices of Kilwins, told me they wanted to open one in Portsmouth, I was ready!”
Desmond and her family moved from the Manchester area to Portsmouth in November, and the search for a location began.
