Filicori Zecchini - La Nostra Storia

One hundred years of good coffee

Bologna, Italy, 1919

By the end of World War I, Aldo Filicori and Luigi Zecchini decided to give birth to a new business reality in Bologna that embraced, under their alert and expert gazes, the entire coffee supply chain, from importing the beans to the making of the espresso. All around a tiny cup of coffee was soon created a real world of values which, even today, combines craftsmanship passion with technological innovation to realize unmistakable products.

1919

Aldo Filicori and Luigi Zecchini back in 1919 started a store in the center of Bologna to sell coffee. They put all their love for good, quality things into it, searched for the best raw materials and, starting with the green bean, studied the secret to perfect roasting. Thus they began to produce an extraordinary coffee that is unique in the world.

2019

October 2019, Filicori Zecchini decided to celebrate 100 years with a special event that everyone will remember and cherish for years to come. We thought the best way to celebrate a century of good coffee was to involve our customers in a coffee competition, which was an opportunity for everyone to test themselves, but also a great moment of education and knowledge of coffee culture.
