Our Story
We're a Canadian chocolatier with a rich history.
Our founder, Richard Carmon Purdy, started selling homemade chocolates in downtown Vancouver, Canada in 1907. After 100+ years of crafting fine chocolates, you get to know a thing or two about doing it right.
At Purdys, everyone—from our chocolatiers to our in-shop chocolate connoisseurs—is always inspired to take you away from the ordinary. We source premium-quality ingredients from around the world and choose local options whenever possible. We never compromise on quality, and you bet you can taste it.
Everything we make at Purdys is crafted with only 100% sustainable cocoa. We pay a premium for cocoa to ensure our farmer partners and co-ops are supported by programs that improve their profit and the livelihoods of their families. It's really quite simple, it's a choice we've made because it's the right choice to make.
Truly Canadian and truly delicious, Purdys is a family-owned company that's proudly all about chocolate.
