Introducing <strong>Godiva</strong> Chocolatier<br />
With a Belgian heritage dating back to 1926, <strong>Godiva</strong><br />
Chocolatier is the global leader in premium chocolate.<br />
Inspired by the values of Lady <strong>Godiva</strong> – her passion,<br />
generosity, and pioneering spirit – <strong>Godiva</strong>'s legendary<br />
name has become a universal symbol of luxury, quality and<br />
the most delicious chocolate.<br />
The company has a presence in more than 100 countries<br />
with distribution in over 500 boutiques, Global Travel<br />
<strong>Retail</strong>, department and specialty stores, and online.<br />
<strong>Godiva</strong> offers a range of chocolate creations and is<br />
dedicated to innovation and excellence in the Belgian<br />
tradition. From its famous truffles and shell-molded<br />
chocolate pieces to its European-style biscuits, individually<br />
wrapped chocolates, gourmet coffees and other<br />
indulgences, <strong>Godiva</strong> is committed to bringing the ultimate<br />
chocolate experience to the world.<br />

The Legend of Lady <strong>Godiva</strong><br />
When Lady <strong>Godiva</strong>, wife of Lord Leofric, protested against the taxation of his subjects a<br />
deal was struck: Lady <strong>Godiva</strong> would ride through the streets of Coventry, “clad in naught<br />
but her long tresses”, and if the population remained in shuttered buildings, their tax burden<br />
would be lifted.<br />
The following morning she made her famous ride, the citizens graciously stayed inside and<br />
Leofric kept his word and reduced the taxes. Lady <strong>Godiva</strong> won the hearts of many and her<br />
legend has continued to deepen throughout the centuries.<br />
Nowhere is her generosity, passion and pioneering, more symbolised than in a tantalising<br />
box of <strong>Godiva</strong> chocolates which in turn are sure to win the hearts of all those taste them.<br />

<strong>Godiva</strong> and the Ultimate Chocolate Experience<br />

delivering gasps of joy with the unique chocolate experience. <strong>Godiva</strong>’s Belgian chocolates<br />
deliver a sequence of rich flavours that indulge all of the five senses.<br />
The refinement of the gift-boxes, the pride we take in our Belgian heritage and the<br />
premium quality of our craftsmanship allow <strong>Godiva</strong> to create happiness that lingers long<br />
after the chocolate has deliciously disappeared.<br />
