The Lindt & Sprüngli Group - premium chocolate since more than 175 years Lindt & Sprüngli is recognized as a leader in the market for premium quality chocolate, offering a large selection of products in more than 120 countries around the world. During 175 years of Lindt & Sprüngli's existence, it has become known as one of the most innovative and creative companies making premium chocolate. The beginnings of Lindt & Sprüngli are in 1845, when father and son for the first time manufactured solid chocolate in their small confectionery Sprüngli & Son. Since then, the company has gone through many different eras, but the entrepreneurial spirit and passion for making chocolate that drove both the Sprüngli family as well as Rodolphe Lindt, when he invented the first truly melting chocolate and later on sold his business to Sprüngli, are still alive. Today, quality chocolate products are made at 11 own production sites in Europe and the USA. They are distributed by 31 subsidiary companies and branch offices, in more than 500 own stores, and also via a comprehensive network of more than 100 independent distributors around the globe. With more than 14,000 employees, the Lindt & Sprüngli Group reported sales of CHF 4.59 billion in 2021. Within the last 15 years, Lindt & Sprüngli has succeeded reshaping the chocolate market in the Nordics. From having been a niche player, Lindt & Sprüngli has quickly grown into the 2nd biggest supplier in the chocolate tablets & pralines market in Sweden and is one of the fastest growing chocolate companies in the rest of the region. By far, we consider Lindt & Sprüngli to be the most shining name within the premium chocolate category. Our key brands EXCELLENCE and LINDOR have quickly reached stronghold status in their field of business and are appreciated by millions of Swedes and Scandinavians on a regular basis. We have ambitious plans for the future ... we'd love you to be a part of our exciting journey!
