When His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman announced Saudi Vision 2030, its first goal was a thriving economy away from oil, and closer to every industry unrelated to it.
EDC was founded in Riyadh in 2020, at exactly the right time: to make fine chocolate here, and carry it from the heart of Saudi Arabia to the world.
We chose flavours from around the world and paired them with chocolate in one small piece, in luxury packaging.
Racing against time, we solved the hard equation:

From bean to piece
The journey of chocolate, and our story within it
A journey from cacao bean to shop shelf. Here is our part in that story, from our factory in Riyadh.
The chocolate’s journey
Our story
The pod
Cacao pods grow in the tropics, each holding the beans that carry the flavour.
Fermenting and drying
The beans are fermented, then dried, and their flavour begins to show.
Roasting
Roasting brings out the aroma and depth of cacao.
Grinding
The beans are ground into a smooth cacao paste.
Refining
Mixed and refined at length until the chocolate turns silky.

Tempering
In our factory, we set the chocolate’s temperature precisely for its shine and snap.
