Franchising
Belvedere Belgian Chocolate Shop®
There is no doubt that a quality product will
last and that's no different when it comes to chocolate. The
benefits of chocolate have been underlined in the media
frequently. In other words, when people want to treat
themselves, chocolate makes a better option.
The Belvedere Belgian Style Chocolates®,
our
signature product has been
selected multiple times as the best.
Imagine your shop where customers fill their box from a stylish display case filled
with a selection of more than 70 different ones... a truly
unique shopping experience in the classy, old-fashioned setting
of a Belvedere Belgian Chocolate Shop®.
Unlike
other chocolatiers, we offer pralines & truffles in 6
different types of chocolate plus a whole range of chocolate
figurines, all made with the same high quality chocolate. You
won't have to worry about variety, new ideas find their way to
our already large assortment of molds constantly.
A superior product
A true Belgian chocolatier, like us, honors
the Belgian tradition of fine and exquisite chocolate making.
Our pralines and
truffles are all natural, without preservatives, without
colorings, without artificial additives, always freshly made
from week to week in a state-of-the-art factory.
Our pralines and truffles don't
keep for months... like some of our competitors. We sincerely
hope that you'll understand, by browsing our web site and looking
at the products, how serious and passionate we are about what we
do with chocolate.
Our product is also superior to imported finished goods, which
typically have preservatives and a long shelf life because it
takes more than a couple of days till an order is processed,
product is packed, shipped overseas, cleared customs,
transported to a warehouse and finally distributed to a store.
Why does Belvedere's taste so much better
?
First, our chocolate comes from Callebaut Belgium, without
question a trendsetter in the world of chocolate for
decades.
Secondly, we are chocolatiers not chemists. Our fillings and
centers are made from scratch, with regular and very basic ingredients,
identical to the ones that are to
be found in any household kitchen: cream, butter, eggs, sugar,
etc. We purchase real fruit, rather than processed fruit (like
preserves, which have unwanted sweeteners and thickeners), we
brew our own coffee and tea, we roast nuts ourselves, and by
going through all that trouble, we control the process
in every aspect, resulting in an excellent product.
Also, our Belgian chocolatier is an expert in creating very
well-balanced fillings, without overwhelming flavors, an art you
could compare to wine making.
Do we need explain more why ours tastes better ?
We don't want you to take our word for it; every person
experiences taste and flavor in a unique way. Convince yourself
by conducting a taste test: compare our pralines with the ones
from competitors, and most of all, don't forget to check out the
ingredient list: in our products, you won't find anything that
is artificial, and surely no hydrogenated oils or fats. Trans
fats are bad for anybody's health.
Why franchising with
Belvedere ?
Our company will be your backbone, not only
because of our
Belgian background, but in many ways.
Beside a wide assortment of pralines and truffles, we offer a full line of solid and hollow
chocolate figurines, seasonal and year-round items, plus support
products for chocolate fountains and fondues.
Having a full line is to your advantage: you don't need to shop
elsewhere and all the product is made with the same high quality
chocolate and manufacturing standards. The customer will appreciate that the Easter Eggs are
as delicious as the Yule Log on Christmas Eve's dinner.
We also stock packaging items which you can buy in small
quantities from us at prices like you would have with volume
purchases.
If you interested in a deeper level than just retailing, there
is an option in manufacturing products by yourself as well.
Don't hesitate to ask for details. It is very eye-catching for
the store, when the customer can have a peek on how things are
done.
We will show you how you can extend your
business with personalized products for business gifts, wedding
favors and share our experience to tap into the local market, like hotels,
country clubs, etc.
And to make the circle complete, we have developed additional
products that blend in perfectly with the Belgian character of
the shop like ice cream bonbons and sugar waffles.

cost of training you and sharing our business experiences,
including how to setup your location.
