Angus Thirlwell is CEO &amp; Co-founder of cocoa grower and chocolate maker, Hotel Chocolat. Having launched in London in 2004, the company now has more than 80 shops in the UK, as well as cafés and restaurants.   Two years after establishing the business, entrepreneur Angus and his business partner Peter Harris bought The Rabot Estate in Saint Lucia, where Angus has led the rejuvenation of the island’s oldest cocoa plantation, kick-starting a ‘cocoa renaissance’ in the process through the innovative Engaged Ethics Cocoa Programme.   The stunning setting of the plantation also inspired the opening of the boutique Boucan hotel and restaurant on the Estate, which fully opened in February 2012. A big year for Hotel Chocolat, it also marked a move into Europe with the opening of two stores in Amsterdam and Copenhagen, the launch of beauty range Cocoa Juvenate and the opening of Roast + Conch in London, an entirely new cocoa concept.  Angus eats chocolate every day and approves every single recipe.  SUBSCRIBE NOW FOR MORE TIPS - https://goo.gl/veB5m1  Who Is Matt Haycox?

Delicious morsels of wisdom - a conversation with Angus Thirlwell 

As the son of the founder of Mr Whippy, perhaps Angus Thirlwell was always destined to build his own brand. But his path to success has not been without some hard won lessons and deep personal insight into his own motivation in life.   Angus’s vision for Hotel Chocolat has always been to not only reimagine an industry, but also bring back core values and purpose into the confectionary market at a time when the heritage of chocolate was being lost in the UK.   From innovative products and the best quality ingredients, to buying a plantation and reinvigorating cocoa farming in St Lucia, Hotel Chocolat stands out against the competition for all the right reasons.  Angus shares his story and talks of how diversifying his product led to success and how putting customers at the heart of the business has helped to cement the status of a truly remarkable brand.  Enjoying listening to these unfiltered chats? It's worth following Holly Tucker MBE and Holly &amp; Co on Instagram, and subscribing to our weekly newsletter on our website, where Holly downloads her thoughts, and exclusively shares small business finds and topical, 'ungoogleable' business advice.

S10: Building an ethical chocolate empire, with Angus Thirlwell, co-founder of Hotel Chocolat

Listeners with a sweet tooth will likely already be familiar with the Hotel Chocolat brand.  Started in 1993, it has charmed UK shoppers with its meticulously produced chocolate and is now one of our most beloved chocolatiers. As the business prepares for one of its busiest times of the year, and what promises to be a very different ‘Covid’ Christmas, it’s also back on our TV screens this autumn, providing behind the scenes access into the running of the UK’s biggest chocolate maker. In this special episode of The Interview Series, Hotel Chocolat CEO and Co-founder, Angus Thirlwell, joins Martin Popplewell in conversation to talk about the business response to the global pandemic and ‘Retail Darwinism’, the growing importance of online sales and its increasing global appeal. They say ‘life is like a box of chocolates’, and that has never felt truer. A year that started full of promise has, well, turned out a little differently than we hoped—to put it mildly. For many in retail, profits may have melted in 2020 as a result of the pandemic. But at Hotel Chocolat, they remain positive about the future, with gifting and online sales protecting it from the worst of the impact on physical retail. Featuring in-depth conversations with leading figures from the world of retail, this is The Retail Exchange’s informed podcast interview series. Hear from the finest minds and inspiring thinkers as they share insights into delivering success and get to the heart of the industry’s big issues.
