Ovidius
Meet Ovidius, ambassador of the sweet delights
The Roman writer Ovidius is rightly seen as the icon of the bon vivant. His love for everything that tastes good inspired us to name our brand after him. To us, he is the ambassador of the sweet delights – an emblem that guarantees the quality and craftsmanship of Ovidias.
The world of Ovidius comes to life
Our packaging brings the world of Ovidius back to life. Various elements subtly refer to his story and make the connection between past and present, between Ovidius and Ovidias:
Over the years, we have always focused on innovation and optimisation, with only one goal in mind: to make the most delicious Belgian chocolates for our customers. Our experience allows us to guarantee you, as a customer, a number of advantages.
There are 6 pillars on which our brand rests and which we guarantee you as an asset. We linked each of these pillars to a symbol from Antiquity, in order to make the link with our emblem Ovidius.
The book with the bookmark
This refers to our many years of family tradition, experience and knowledge of the sector.
The story of Ovidias started in 1978 with Frans Vangertruyden. The name “Ovidias” was first used in 1989, and in 2017 Frans’ daughter Miet Vangertruyden took over the company. As a second generation, she continues the family tradition.
