Guittard American Chocolates & Chocolate Bars
In the 1850's, Etienne Guittard embarked on an arduous journey from France to America. It was during the California
Gold Rush, and in just a few short years, while still in his twenties, this adventuresome Frenchman struck gold on the
rough and tumble streets of early San Francisco.
An experienced chocolate maker, Etienne had brought delicious French chocolate to trade for mining supplies, but
soon discovered that wealthy miners were willing to pay premium prices for this elegant treat. Etienne sailed back to
Tournus, France, where he worked in his uncle's chocolate factory until he could afford to buy his own chocolate
making equipment. In 1868, he returned to San Francisco and opened Guittard Chocolate on Sansome Street.

Blommer Chocolate Company American Chocolates
Blommer Chocolate is a fully integrated chocolate and cocoa manufacturer serving customers around the world. Our
company was founded in 1939 in Chicago, Illinois by Henry Blommer, Sr., along with his brothers Al and Bernard. By
1948, the business warranted further expansion. They branched out nationally with the addition of Blommer Chocolate
Factory of California in Los Angeles. In 1952, Blommer purchased the common stock of Boldemann Chocolate of San
Francisco.
Both the southern California and San Francisco operations were consolidated in 1970 when a new facility was built in
Union City, California. We expanded once again to meet the demands of increasing business when we built a new
plant in East Greenville, Pa in 1980 and again this year when we added 85,000 square feet to our East Greenville
facility. The company’s three factories are located strategically across the United States giving us the unique ability to
respond quickly to our customers’ needs.
