Overview
Funtom Corporation is a prosperous enterprise, strongly supported by the wealthy and bourgeoisie. When Funtom Corporation was first brought attention to, its size[7] and reputation swiftly grew, and it became greatly distinguished in a little under three years.[3] Its factories are located all over England; one of them is in Yorkshire.[8]
Funtom Corporation specializes in original novelties reportedly unseen before by other classes.[3] Its products, ranging from candies to toys, are especially enrapturing to children.[9] Harold West Jeb had dubbed it "the candy king."[10]
Aside from confections and toys, Funtom Corporation also at least some ventures in cosmetics as well, namely perfume.
After winning a Royal Warrant at the Curry Fair in December 1888, Funtom Corporation has opened up a food branch, the branch's main product being the curry bun invented by Sebastian Michaelis.[11]
Recently, Ciel has been in talks with the Roze Diamond Company to start a jewelry venture together.
