History

Rogers' Chocolates is steeped in tradition and a rich history that has earned us our reputation as one of Canada's premiere chocolate makers.

The first Rogers' chocolates were made in 1885 by Charles "Candy" Rogers in the back of his grocery store in Victoria, B.C. He quickly became a popular man. In 1891, Rogers expanded his chocolate operation to the company's current heritage storefront on Government Street in Victoria and the rest, as they say, is history.

Today, we have 8 retail stores, several hundred wholesale outlets ship to over 50 countries, and a 20,000 square-foot factory .

Rogers' Chocolates celebrated its 125th Anniversary on October 25th, 2010.

Many of "Candy" Rogers' original recipes remain untouched since 1885 and form our "Classics" product line to this day. As testimony to our constant pursuit of perfection, we have developed and will unveil our Organic, All Natural and Artisan product lines on our Anniversary.
