I do! It was the Alexce family (pronounced alek-sy), started by John Alecxe, and then run by his son, Harry.

I remember the old wheeled cart, as they would take it to the exhibition every year and sell popcorn and warm peanuts in a bag.

Ahh....being a young kid in the 1960's!

By the way, just Google 'Alexce' as there are a lot of items about them.
