Caffè Vergnano: tradition for over 100 years

Caffè Vergnano looks back on a long and traditional history. Founded in 1882 as a small grocery store in Chieri, a small town at the foot of the hills of Turin, the company was run by the grandfather of the current owner, Domenico Vergnano. This laid the foundation for the Vergnano family's true vocation. For in just a few years, the family members of the small store mastered the secrets of roasting and selling coffee. Now the company developed by leaps and bounds - and the first three Italian stores were opened in Turin, Alba and Chieri. The real leap forward, however, came in the 1930s as a result of a bold decision. The company acquired its own coffee plantation in Kenya.

Caffè Vergnano is committed to the environment

Since 1999, Caffè Vergnano has internalized the guiding principle of sustainability in the context of its business activities, because protecting the environment demonstrably also leads to a better quality of life. The premium roaster has therefore decided to comply with both mandatory and voluntary regulations on product safety and environmental protection. To achieve this goal, the quality department has been given the necessary financial resources.

For 140 years and four generations, we have been driven by our passion;
To preserve and pass on a unique tradition, with respect for people and the planet. This is why we created our SUSTAINABLE COMMITTEE, which now defines our goals and guides our actions.
It is a meticulous path, made of quality, Italian-ness and care,
and where people and the environment are at the center of everything we do.

Our strong commitment to a more sustainable coffee comes from here.

We select only the best origins and roast them slowly according to tradition,

ensuring a unique production process that is increasingly focused on the use of sustainable raw materials, food safety and carefully guarded ethical working practices.

We are committed to a circular economy

Our production and innovation are focused on the use of recycled and recyclable materials so that our used products can be reused as raw materials or disposed of in complete harmony with the environment.

Our strong commitment to recycled and recoverable materials also results in our packaging and merchandising.

Tin Configurator

Partnerships

We care for people

We are building a future that creates value for people - from employees to business partners and suppliers with whom we share values of respect, ethical work and transparency. In particular, we care about women, those working in coffee-growing communities and close to us, for whom we stand up for education and equal employment opportunities.
