Swiss chocolate maker Sprüngli selects Vienna Airport as its first Austrian store location

Vienna Airport is the first Austrian location with a Sprüngli store: the most well-known Swiss maker of chocolate delicacies is now offering its popular product line of the finest confectionery in Terminal 3 near the G gates.
Customers will find exquisite pralines and truffles, iconic Luxemburgerli macaroons and fresh broken chocolate, individually arranged at a separate Chocolathèque. Chocolate creations are produced in accordance with closely guarded recipes and are handmade. Sprüngli has emerged as a symbol of Switzerland and is now represented in Austria for the first time.

“I am extremely pleased with the fact that Sprüngli selected Vienna Airport as its first Austrian store location. This traditional Swiss brand stands for the highest quality and more than 180 years of experience in manufacturing chocolates. People can enjoy Sprüngli chocolate at the new airport shop and take in on their journey. The store is a great complement to the airport’s existing brand offering,” states Julian Jäger, Joint CEO and COO of Vienna Airport.

“Vienna Airport is the ideal location for us to also present our chocolate boutique in Austria for the first time – featuring delectable chocolates created with passion and in the tradition of craftsmanship. As a premium Swiss brand, what connects us are shared values such as a holistic quality and service concept and a sense for exclusivity and innovation,” says Tomas Prenosil, Chairman of the Board of Sprüngli.
