THE BEGINNINGS.

Edmondo Messori, left in the photo, with his early collaborators, in Modena there where the sweet history of Messori Chocolate Shop was born.

1950 growth

The second venue

It was his son Giorgio, together with his wife Wanda, keeper of the secret made of cocoa, passion and dedication, who revived Messori by bringing back sweetness after the shadows of World War II, reopening the new headquarters in Vignola.

1983 the new generation

Legacy that is renewed

Massimo and Patrizia, Giorgio's children, join the company to continue the family tradition. Patrizia guards the magic of production, while Massimo looks to the future, creating innovations that respect the historic heart of Messori.

1991 innovation

New Products

Massimo invents and launches the Cono Snack on the international market: a daring idea, as it is the first cone not to be stored in the freezer, whose timeless shape is reminiscent of the classic ice cream cone. Messori's Cono Snack revolutionizes the snack world and conquers all, soon becoming our icon, the most innovative...and the most imitated.

2003 And the tradition continues

We at Messori have been "working" with chocolate since childhood!

The renovated headquarters

Generation after generation, the same flame has been passed down, with love and respect, to today. It is not just a craft: it is a bond that unites fathers and sons, mothers and grandchildren, in a history of sacrifices, dreams and one certainty: that chocolate is a universal language of happiness.

THE LADY OF "CHOCOLATES"

Messori chocolate, with its goodness, knows how to bond with the fondest memories. Proof of this is Wanda, mother of Massimo and Patrizia, who reached the 92-year milestone with a smile and the sweetness of a life well lived, thanks to her 74 years in the chocolate business.

The new headquarters

The new facility was born in an area more accessible to heavy transportation than the historic central residential location. The time has come to move, to continue to grow and shape our chocolate dreams.
