Godiva Chocolate began with a personal love affair with chocolate and a Belgian family’s dream to share their passion and artistry with the world. The growth of Godiva – from its humble beginnings in 1926 in Brussels to the global company it is today – is a testament to the ardour, enterprise and devotion of the Draps family. Now a household name in more than 100 countries, from Europe to North America, from the Middle East to the Far East, Godiva is distinguished for its exquisite Belgian chocolate.
