Goplana is a confectionery factory and brand in Poznań, currently belonging to the Colian Holding, seated in Opatówek in the Greater Poland Voivodeship.

On 17 July 1913, with Tadeusz Prądzyński entering the company capital, the name was modified as Poznańska Fabryka Czekolady "Goplana".

This new appellation was intended to emphasize the regional and national character of the factory and tease Polish customers.

[1] At that time, the plant occupied a one-storey building at 9/10 Warschauerstrasse in Poznań (where the Śródka roundabout is currently located).

[2] The First World War conflict limited the operations because cocoa was an expensive import raw material.

On 19 June 1926, a new own boiler room was installed, comprising two generators with a power of 115 and 85 kW, covering the energy needs of the plant.

However, from 1928 onwards, the catalogue expanded:[2] The Great Depression deeply affected the operations and despite investments the plant did not bring the expected profits.

On 2 September 1940, the factory was sold to Kaisers Kaffeegeschäft (English: Coffee shop) from Viersen, for over 626,000 marks: it was re-named "Gotana" Schokoladenfabrik G.m.b.H..

Nationalization occurred on 1 January 1946:[4] the facility was renamed Fabryka Czekolady, Cukrów i Keksów Nr 1 „Goplana” (English: Chocolate, Sugar and Fruit Cake Factory No.

On April 1, 1966, "Goplana" was merged with Sugar Factory "Rywal" from Leszno,[5] giving birth to the Wielkopolskie Zakłady Przemysłu Cukierniczy.

In 1967, the plant in Kargowa was anew incorporated in the structure which took the naming Wielkopolsko-Lubuskie Zakłady Przemysłu Cukierniczy.

[2] Between 1964 and 1966, a completely new manufacturing building was erected and part of the old one was razed, giving room for a social house to be constructed.

At the end of the 1960s, over 200 assortments of products were prepared, including biscuits "Deserowe", "Angielskie", "Domowe", "Maczki", "Tureckie", "Koreanki", "Serwetkowe", "Goplanki" and the very popular "Bé-Bé" or "Apricot" and "Cytrynki" caramels.

[4] The place still refers to the 100-year tradition of chocolate production, thanks to the presence of educational and commemorative plaques describing the history of the factory and the people who created it.
