ROYCE' was founded in Sapporo in 1983. Since the foundation, by gradually acquiring better techniques and riches experiences, we have been dedicated to make real good chocolate of world quality in Hokkaido where the climate and the clean air are suitable to make confectionaries. The fundamental ROYCE' principle has been and will be to find and to use high quality ingredients at anytime, and to sell its products at prices that customers can afford daily consumption. In the course of time, because of increasing demand, ROYCE' began taking orders from customers from outside of Hokkaido by telephone. Customers' names and addresses were recorded and their orders were sent one by one from our factory. That was the beginning of our mail order system. When we started to bake cookies at a small factory, the smell from the factory tempted and attracted the neighbors. A table was put in front of the factory and cookies were sold. That was the beginning of the direct management stores. If we look back, the history of Royce' has been based upon the support of many people. Royce' chocolate is enjoyed by many Royce' chocolate lovers in Hokkaido, Japan and other countries. We will continue to make real good chocolate by observing our fundamental principle, and with our challenging creative spirit.
