SIMÓN COLL FACTORY
Simón coll is a well known chocolate factory, situated in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia. The factory
Began when the chocolate maker was born in this village situated 40 kilometres far from Barcelona. Sant Sadurní is known in the world as the sparkling wine “Cava” capital. Miquel Coll was the successor and extended the selling activity of all the products in Catalonia in the middle of the year 1950. He also built a new factory from where you can smell chocolate in the town centre.
From the 70s onwards, a great number of small local makers disappeared. Luckily, this was not the case for Simón Coll. Xavier Coll, Miquel’s son, decided to develop a great range of chocolate products for Christmas and Easter, something that helped the factory make their brand stronger. Simón Coll began to be sold in the most important cake and sweet shops around the world. Some time later, the factory made chocolate and “turrons” (a typical kind of pastry for Christmas time) with excellent nuts from our country.
All these areas of specialization helped the expansion of the products throughout Spain, and later, the factory exported their products to more than 20 countries around the world. Simón Coll opened a chocolate shop next to the factory. People can find all the products in the shop.
STORAGE
Chocolates Simón Coll uses climate-controlled facilities to make sure that its products are stored in the right conditions: 12 to 20º C and with less than 70% humidity. The finished product is stored in a robotic warehouse with a capacity of 4,000 pallets and an automated picking area. This is where we prepare orders and finally send them off.
