"Massimo Zanetti Coffee Company;
Coffee is like someone you love
and can’t manage without…"

Mr. Massimo Zanetti’s grandfather sold coffee. So did his father. So does he. The difference is that his grandfather and father were in the business of green coffee. Mr. Massimo Zanetti was the first in the family to produce and sell roasted coffee. That was 35 years ago. At that time, the company was selling about a ton of roasted coffee a year.

Today, the Massimo Zanetti Company, based in Bologna, Italy, offers a wide array of premium coffee and produces many tons of coffee annually. Operations include a coffee plantation and green coffee processing plant in Brazil, a coffee mill in Costa Rica, a green coffee export company in both markets, and a green coffee trading company in Switzerland. They now run roasting plants throughout the world, a far cry from the modest beginnings of the company. With old world traditions and values still in place, Massimo Zanetti continues to operate at the highest of quality standards.
