Lindt has globally enchanted chocolate lovers all over the world since 1845. During the 175 years of Lindt & Sprüngli’s existence, the company has produced chocolate and chocolate related products. Nothing else. Generations of thrilled, imaginative, enthusiastic, and inventive employees have built the company to what it is today: the world’s leading producer of premium chocolate.
Within the last 20 years, Lindt has succeeded reshaping the chocolate market in the Nordics. From having been a niche player, Lindt has quickly grown into the leading premium brand in Sweden, and is one of the fastest growing chocolate companies in the rest of the region, Finland, Norway and Denmark. In the eyes of the Nordic consumers, Lindt is known for elevating their chocolate consumption with the best quality chocolate.
Working together as one team, we create a magical experience that reaches every consumer around the world with our finest Lindt chocolate – We Enchant the World with Chocolate!
