Europe Chocolate Company
Europe Chocolate Company is a Public Limited Company registered in Belgium under 0449868479, and its current status with Crossroads Bank for Enterprises (KBO/BCE) is active. The company was incorporated on 8 April 1993 and lists its registered address as Belgium. 1 shareholder is on record for Europe Chocolate Company, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Crossroads Bank for Enterprises (KBO/BCE) and was last updated on 3 October 2026.

Shareholders
1
One shareholder is currently on record for Europe Chocolate Company, reflecting the registre des actions nominatives (register of registered shares) maintained under the Code des sociétés et des associations rather than a public filing.
