Venchi’s Post

We are extremely proud to announce the publication of our first sustainability report! This important milestone marks a key step in our journey towards developing a strategy that addresses not only environmental concerns, but also social and economic challenges. The report – which follows the GRI standards – offers our stakeholders full transparency regarding our business operations, achievements, and, most importantly, our sustainability goals and commitments. In line with these objectives, we are equally pleased to share that we have earned both the ISO 14001 and 45001 certifications for our production site and offices in Milan and Castelletto Stura (CN). These certifications showcase our dedication to a rigorous environmental management system, as well as our commitment to ensuring the health and safety of our employees.   #Venchi #SustainabilityinVenchi

146 years of chocolate artistry! Today, we are celebrating Venchi’s birthday, marking 146 years of passion, craftsmanship, and devotion to creating fine chocolate and gelato. From our beginnings in 1878, when Silviano Venchi first experimented with chocolate in a small establishment in Turin, to becoming a global brand with over 180 stores worldwide, our journey has been shaped by continuous innovation. Each Venchi creation, from our renowned Nougatine to the iconic Chocoviar, reflects traditions steeped in Italian excellence, now enjoyed in more than 70 countries. We invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone and be part of a story that brings moments of delight through indulgent products, crafted for your well-being.   #Venchi #VenchiNews #VenchiBirthday

At Venchi, every bite tells a unique story. The story of our heritage and creativity, but mostly the story of the people who choose our products every day, and the pure happiness they bring to their lives.  We see our diverse range as a tasty adventure that makes us all “Crazy for Chocolate”. In collaboration with M&C Saatchi Europe, we have translated this concept into our new campaign, which recently launched worldwide. Through this initiative, we are working to celebrate our extensive range of chocolate bars, from our most classic recipes to our boldest innovations. At the same time, we are introducing two important new creations: 5 new recipes that complete our Dark Chocolate line, from 60% to 100%, and the launch of our No Added Sugar line. These exciting additions reflect our commitment to offering a variety of products that satisfy all tastes and preferences. The campaign will be supported globally in all Venchi stores with printed and video materials, alongside a dedicated social media plan on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, as well as a digital advertising campaign.  #Venchi #VenchiNews #CrazyForChocolateCampaign

We are proud to share an innovative new initiative with one of our main logistics partners, Tonoli Spedizioni e Logistica. Tonoli has converted their entire fleet of trucks to a sustainable fuel HVO (hydrogenated vegetable oil) that is obtained from food waste and 100% renewable. In line with Venchi’s commitment to reduce our environmental impact, HVO guaranties an  approximately -83% reduction in CO2eq emissions compared to traditional fossil diesel. “Engaging with our suppliers is key to our sustainability journey, ensuring that the logistic management of our supply chain behind our delicious products is as green as possible” says Sojourner Morrell, ESG Manager. “A special thanks also to Francesco Bruzzone for supporting this initiative with our local stakeholders. We look forward to further developing such projects in the future!" #Venchi #SustainabilityinVenchi

We are thrilled to announce the opening of our very first Chocogelateria in Germany, located in the iconic Marienplatz in Munich! Nestled in the heart of this historic square, our new store invites all chocolate and gelato lovers to indulge in the authentic flavours of Italy. This marks a significant milestone for Venchi as we bring our passion for high-quality, artisanal delights to a new audience in one of Europe’s most charming cities.  “Expanding Venchi’s presence in Germany is an exciting and significant step for us,” says Gionata Mangiafico, Head of Retail. “We see this as just the beginning of an ambitious plan to open more stores across the country. We are excited to introduce our products to this market and grateful to all the colleagues who made this possible. A special thank you goes to Tiziano Xhixha, Luciana Moldovan, and the entire team for their dedication and hard work”. #Venchi #NewOpening

Last week, we had the pleasure of being hosted once again by SDA Bocconi to share an engaging lecture on Sustainability Strategy at Venchi. Our ESG manager, Sojourner Morrell, provided valuable insights and a comprehensive perspective on our commitment to promoting everyday well-being. It was very encouraging to feel not only the knowledge, but also the genuine enthusiasm of these students regarding sustainability topics. We express our gratitude to Professor Andrea Biancardi and SDA Bocconi for involving us in this meaningful discussion.

Sojourner Morrell, nostra ESG manager, ha fornito preziosi spunti e una prospettiva a 360° sul nostro impegno nel promuovere il benessere quotidiano. È stato molto gratificante percepire non solo la conoscenza, ma anche il genuino entusiasmo di questi studenti nei confronti delle principali tematiche riguardanti la sostenibilità. Ringraziamo calorosamente il professore Andrea Biancardi e SDA Bocconi per averci coinvolto in questa interessante discussione. #Venchi #Venchifortalents #BocconiSummerSchool
