According to Mr. Cravero, “Venchi is excited to become a part of the prominent Upper East Side community and we look forward to joining the wonderful variety of luxury epicurean, fashion, home, design, and other retail brands.”
Venchi first arrived in New York City in November 2018 with the opening of its boutique at 861 Broadway in Union Square, which features a chocolate waterfall. Since then, the company has been expanding throughout the city and now features ChocoGelaterias in three other locations (1796 Broadway, 233 Bleecker Street, and 198 Columbus Avenue).
