Perugina is an Italian chocolate confectionery company based in Perugia, Italy that was founded in 1907. The company also operates a chocolate-making school at its factory in Perugia, which commenced in 2007. Perugina was purchased by and became a division of the Nestlé corporation in 1988. Merged in 1968 with the family company of the same name to form the IBP-Industrie Buitoni Perugina group, it was involved in the crisis of the food sector of the seventies, from which it emerged in 1985 with the sale to Carlo De Benedetti 's CIR group; However, political maneuvers outside the group prevented the latter from consolidating its presence in the consumer food sector and, in 1988, IGP was sold to the Swiss multinational Nestlé which since 2008 has only held the Perugina brand, having sold Buitoni on that date. Perugina's registered office has been in Milan since 1988, but the production plants and the Chocolate School are located in Perugia.
