About Lavazza Group Established in 1895 in Turin, the Italian roaster has been owned by the Lavazza family for four generations. Among the world's most important roasters, the Group currently operates in more than 90 countries through subsidiaries and distributors, exporting 63% of its production. Lavazza employs a total of about 3,000 people with... a turnover of more than €2.0 billion in 2017. Lavazza invented the concept of blending - or in other words the art of combining different types of coffee from different geographical areas - in its early years and this continues to be a distinctive feature of most of its products. The company also has over 25 years' experience in production and sale of portioned coffee systems and products. It was the first Italian business to offer capsule espresso systems. Lavazza operates in all business segments: at home, away-from-home and office coffee service, always with a focus on innovation in consumption technologies and systems. Lavazza has been able to develop its brand awareness through important partnerships perfectly in tune with its brand internationalization strategy, such as those in the world of sport with the Grand Slam tennis tournaments, and those in fields of art and culture with prestigious museums like New York's Guggenheim Museum, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection Venice, and The Hermitage State Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. As the company continues on a strategic globalization path, the Lavazza Group has acquired local jewels in key markets such as France's Carte Noire (2016), Denmark's Merrild (2015) and North America's Kicking Horse Coffee (2017). Additionally, in 2017 the Group amplified its distribution reach with the acquisition of France's Espresso Service Proximité and Italy's Nims.Read More
