ABOUT VENCHI

Venchi Italian Chocolate is on a mission to bring the flavor of the Italian Allegria (joy and happiness) to the world. Venchi creates everyday unforgettable moments of sharing and celebration. With 140 years of expertise in chocolate making, Venchi's history dates back to 1878 when Silviano Venchi, a 20-year-old from Turin who loved chocolate spent his life savings on two bronze cauldrons to experiment with chocolate.

Today, Silviano Venchi's passion, meticulous care and courage to experiment remain. Venchi's values include "Verissimo" (Heritage) - from Piedmont where the art of chocolate is part of the company's DNA. "Allegrissimo" (Allegria) - living the Italian Way. And "Buonissimo" (Balance) - featuring 100% wholesome raw materials, less sugar, and no artificial ingredients. The brand is known for its imaginatively named chocolates: Chooaviar, Truffles, Gianduiotti, Cremini, bars, Suprema spread, and its famous authentic Italian Gelato.

Venchi is an internationally known brand with more than 350 chocolate recipes and 90 gelato flavors. It is sold in more than 70 countries and 135 shops in key cities worldwide including London, Hong Kong, Dubai, New York, Berlin, Shanghai, and Tokyo. The company maintains a commitment to three core values: VERISSIMO (authentic), ALLEGRISSIMO (fun), and BUONISSIMO (delicious).
