Sunrise was founded by a young Julius Lighton and his son-in-law, Walter Eger. Initially, the two bought out Jupp & Sons, a small confectionery business in Abbotsford, Melbourne. Two years later, another of Julius Lighton's sons-in-law, Rudi Moser, joined him, and in 1949, they acquired a second small confectionery company, E. & H. Ihles, in another Melbourne suburb, Camberwell.
In 1951, these companies were merged into Sunrise. Three years later, after the phenomenal success of his confectionery companies, Sunrise purchased a larger factory in Greville Street, Prahran, Melbourne, to consolidate production.
Over the years, Sunrise Confectioners produced a multitude of confectionery including chocolate bullets, barley sugar, toasted marshmallows, hundreds & thousands, aniseed rings and more.
