Our Company

Swan Chocolates was founded by the husband and wife team of Michael and Theresa Anderson, both chocolatiers whose passion and love for chocolate-making runs deep.

Originally, the Anderson’s had planned to open a small chocolate factory upon retirement from their careers. But, while vacationing on a cold winter day in 2001, everything changed. Sitting in a small pub, the couple discussed their vision of a chocolate company – where it would be, what chocolate creations they would make, what to name it. They scribbled notes on a napkin. They called it a business plan. And they decided, right then, that to wait another 30 years for their dream was out of the question.

In early 2003, Swan Chocolates opened its doors for the first time in Merrimack, New Hampshire, unveiling the most indulgent selection of gourmet truffles and signature chocolates. The name, “Swan”, a family surname from Europe, was chosen to represent the company.

Although the methods for making chocolates vary greatly, Swan Chocolates are different – they are rich, creamy and truly memorable because of a commitment to handcrafted quality. The decadent taste of Swan Chocolates comes from using pure Belgian Chocolate, fresh all-natural ingredients, and no preservatives ever! “We tasted chocolate and various ingredients from around the world, and we believe our choices have made all the difference. Our success will never compromise this intense dedication to quality.”

Today, Swan Chocolates is gaining a nation-wide reputation for offering the finest handcrafted gourmet chocolates you will ever enjoy. The Andersons, with help from a devoted team of employees, hope to further develop their “new tradition” in gourmet chocolate-making. With this website, they hope to share this tradition with chocolate lovers around the world.
