GODIVA is launching a sampling program in New York City to celebrate its 95th anniversary and to raise awareness of the brand’s national availability in food, drug, grocery and mass retailers.

Owners of Bissinger’s Handcrafted Chocolatier have announced plans to take over a former GODIVA Chocolatier store at the Saint Louis Galleria in St. Louis, Mo.

GODIVA hopes to honor the tradition of expressing love through chocolate with its limited-edition Valentine's Day collection.

GODIVA has officially named Nurtac Ziyal Afridi as CEO after she served at the company’s helm for two months in the interim.
