GODIVA Chocolatier is now open in Sanlitun Village
Sanlitun Village is full of new openings, most of them being retail with STELLALUNA & JK JY Sanlitun Village Flagship Grand Opening, high-end French label A.P.C. Atelier Production Creation, Fred Perry, HOODS Beijing (Japanese brand NEIGHBORHOOD), Benefit Make-Up, Christian Louboutin's new flagship in Village North…but I'm not nearly as excited about those openings as I am about the Godiva store and 2nd story Cafe Godiva.
Marketing themselves as "The World's Ultimate Chocolate Experience" is a pretty bold statement that can only be claimed so confidently by one worldwide brand.
Started in Brussels, Belgium in 1926, Godiva opened its first boutique in honor of Lady Godiva, "who was an 11th-century Anglo-Saxon noblewoman who, according to legend, rode naked through the streets of Coventry in order to gain a remission of the oppressive taxation imposed by her husband on his tenants".
After it was purchased by the Campbell Soup Company, it's now one of the world's most well-known premium chocolate manufacturers. Godiva currently owns and operates over 600 retail boutiques and shops in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia and is available via over 10,000 speciality retailers.
Famous for their premium chocolate, Godiva also sells truffles, coffee, cocoa, biscuits, dipped fruits and sweets, chocolate liqueur, shakes, wedding and party favors and other items arranged in gift baskets.
Godiva has already opened their first story shop next to Starbucks in Sanlitun Village and their second story Cafe Godiva looks like it's only a matter of days before that is up and running as well.
Coming Soon: Godiva Cafe on the 2nd Floor of Sanlitun Village
Known to also host Godiva Chocolate Making Classes by Chocolate Alchemists, chocoholics will be blown away to know the level of detail that goes into crafting their favorite luxury chocolates.
Perhaps dreams of eating my way through a Godiva Chocolate Factory might actually be coming true!
