“At GODIVA we like to say that we can turn a simple smile into a WOW, and Caroline does the same around the world,” said Mohamed Elsarky, Godiva CEO. “We are excited to welcome Caroline into the GODIVA family, and feel she is the ideal face for the brand – a vibrant, world-class talent, with appeal well beyond the tennis court.”

The deal is the first global celebrity partnership for the brand, and the first confectionery deal for Wozniacki, who has a well-documented sweet tooth. GODIVA reached out to Wozniacki after Dave Marberger, GODIVA CFO, read about Wozniacki’s love of chocolate in a Wall Street Journal article in late 2014.

As ambassador, Wozniacki will support GODIVA initiatives globally while she is on the tournament circuit, scheduled to make stops in China, Europe, the United States, and the Middle East. GODIVA operates over 500 boutiques in over 80 countries, so Wozniacki’s global appeal makes the partnership a natural fit. “No matter where tennis takes me across the globe, I always find myself in a GODIVA store. It’s the perfect partnership because it allows me to indulge a little when I’m on the road and in need of a pick-me-up,” Wozniacki said.

The partnership was announced with a private gathering at GODIVA’s Fifth Avenue boutique in New York, and the brand is excited to work with Wozniacki on upcoming initiatives.
