GODIVA will Bring its Iconic Pink Truck to NYC for the Holidays
Debra John — December 6, 2024 — Marketing
This holiday season, GODIVA is continuing its tradition by bringing back its iconic 'Pink Truck,' a legacy that originated in post-war Brussels. Initially introduced to uplift spirits by delivering confections to locals, the Pink Truck will once again provide consumers and the general public with a special chocolate experience.
The truck’s journey will begin in New York City on December 9, where GODIVA’s Executive Chef Chocolatier, Thierry Muret, will join the event. From there, "the truck will visit key NYC locations, such as Rockefeller Center and Herald Square, where customers can sample chocolates from the Holiday Collection." After NYC, the truck will travel to Tampa, Florida, to support communities affected by recent hurricanes.
This ongoing initiative highlights GODIVA’s commitment to spreading holiday cheer and supporting local communities. Continuing this tradition enables the brand to connect with consumers in a meaningful way while reinforcing its long-standing legacy of giving back.
