"Flyers sweets" isn't a generic search — it's one specific brand, and it's worth knowing what it actually is before assuming it's something we'd stock alongside our usual liquorice range.
What Flyers actually is
Flyers is a liquorice brand made by Stockley's, a confectionery company with roots in Lancashire dating back to just after the First World War. Flyers itself is best known for a chewy liquorice stick with a sour centre, and trade coverage has put it at around 15% of the UK liquorice category by sales. The range has grown in recent years — a cherry flavour arrived in 2024, and in 2025 the brand launched its first non-liquorice product, a sour apple stick with a raspberry sherbet centre, alongside a multi-flavour four-pack format. Those growth figures come from the brand's own trade statements, so treat them as Stockley's account of its own performance rather than independently verified numbers.
Do we stock Flyers?
No, not currently. We do carry other Stockley's classics, though — Stockley's Chocolate Flavoured Limes 3kg, Stockley's Cola Cubes 3kg and Stockley's Sherbet Lemons 3kg — just not the Flyers liquorice stick line itself.
What to try instead from our liquorice range
If a chewy or sour liquorice stick is what you're after, our Liquorice collection includes Taveners Liquorice Allsorts, Haribo Pontefract Cakes and Barratt Hard Liquorice Sticks — all genuine liquorice lines, even though none of them is the specific Flyers product.
