Lindt Excellence 100% Cacao Dark Chocolate

Lindt & Sprüngli is a prestigious Swiss chocolatier with roots dating back to 1845 in Zurich. The Excellence line represents the brand's commitment to high-cocoa content and premium dark chocolate bars. While the brand is quintessentially Swiss, its manufacturing footprint is global to meet international demand.

Lindt operates twelve of its own production sites across Europe and the United States. While many premium bars found in Canada are imported from factories in Switzerland, Germany, or France, the company also has significant manufacturing facilities in the USA (Stratham, NH) to serve the North American market. Regardless of where the bar is pressed, the company maintains strict quality standards over the entire production process from bean to bar.

The brand remains under the ownership of Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprüngli AG, which is a publicly traded Swiss company. As of 2026 and beyond, it continues to operate as an independent entity, standing as one of the few large-scale chocolate manufacturers that manages its entire supply chain and production process independently of larger food conglomerates.
