Butlers Chocolates, the Irish owned manufacturer of luxury chocolate and chocolate products, launched its chain of cafés known as Butlers Chocolate Café on December 5, 2015 at 175 Gulshan Avenue, Gulshan 2. Various industry leaders, celebrities, and media personalities were present at the event.
Butlers Chocolates was founded in Ireland in 1932 by Marion Butler, with an aim "to bring a little happiness to the world, one chocolate at a time." In 1998, the company opened its first café in Dublin, Ireland offering premium chocolates, coffee, tea, and chocolate beverages. Now customers in Bangladesh will be able to experience two great pleasures together – chocolate and coffee, at their sophisticated location in the heart of Dhaka’s prestigious Gulshan Avenue.
In view of the launch, Mehreen Gheewala, spokesperson of Butlers Chocolate Café said, "The people of Bangladesh are known for their keen understanding and appreciation of high quality and rich-in-taste food products. We at Butlers Chocolates produce the finest quality chocolates and hot beverages that would satisfy the taste buds of customers, making them come back for more. I believe the wonderful people of Bangladesh will really enjoy our presence in their lives."
Now 75 years old, the renowned brand has franchises in New Zealand, United Arab Emirates and Pakistan. Butlers Chocolates is also available in 40 countries worldwide, including the USA, United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore, India, and Russia.
