History

The chocolate manufacturer in France:

60 years of chocolated success in chocolate...

Henry ABTEY chocolatierHenry Abtey and his wife founded their chocolate factory in 1946 in a small 20m2 shop. They were very far from thinking of the 7500 m2 production area fitted out with constantly upgraded machines which became their chocolate factory.

This success story is no fiction, indeed. Initially based on strong will and entrepreneurship of a young couple, Abtey employs now up to 200 people in high season, produces 1.300 tons of chocolates a year and distributes its products in more than 35 countries in the world.
