Berkshire acquired See’s Candies in 1972 for US$25 million. YFBuffett

During Berkshire Hathaway’s 2020 annual shareholder meeting on Saturday evening, CEO Warren Buffett fielded a question about which of Berkshire’s subsidiaries have been hardest-hit by coronavirus.

Buffett mentions See’s most years, in either his shareholder letters or at the annual meeting, so its small size belies the company’s personal significance to him.
