San Francisco Since 1852
In 1837, Domingo Ghirardelli left his homeland of Italy with dreams of selling confections and chocolate abroad. After spending ten years in South America, he immigrated to the United States during the California Gold Rush to see if he could strike it rich. He was immediately successful, and in just three years Domingo had created the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company. In the early 1900’s, Ghirardelli Chocolate found a home in Ghirardelli Square, among San Francisco’s historic piers. Its trademark lights began welcoming ships passing through the Golden Gate, as they still do today.
Ghirardelli Chocolate Company continues to build on its signature taste and time-honored manufacturing processes as America’s premium chocolate company. From the selection of the highest quality cocoa beans to the extensive conching, Ghirardelli Chocolate, unlike many other manufactories, proudly controls all steps of the chocolate making process, providing customers with ultimate chocolate quality.
