Caffè Vergnano 1882 is an Italian coffee brand built on a long roasting tradition and a distinctive authentic Italian espresso identity. The brand begins in 1882 in Chieri, where Domenico Vergnano opens a small workshop and starts what becomes a family coffee business. Over the following decades, the company grows from a small local operation into a structured roaster with wider production and distribution capabilities. In 1930, Caffè Vergnano strengthens its coffee expertise by acquiring a coffee farm in Kenya. In 1986, the brand enters the Food Service sector through the acquisition of the historic Casa del Caffè brand. From 1996 onward, the company expands internationally and builds a stronger presence in foreign markets. In 2000, it opens its first coffee shop in Chieri and develops a format that promotes Italian espresso culture beyond Italy. The product range includes whole beans, ground coffee, capsules, and E.S.E. pods, while the brand also supports professionals through horeca solutions and Accademia Vergnano. Sustainability is also part of the brand profile, including compostable capsule development and broader environmental commitments. Caffè Vergnano 1882 today presents itself as a traditional yet modern family-led coffee brand with global ambition.
