\n\t\t\t\tCaff\u00e8 Grieco was founded when Francesco Grieco\u2019s great passion and professionalism led him to the Milan trade show, driven by the desire to make his dream come true. \t\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\tFrancesco and his brothers approached the world of coffee with tireless enthusiasm, learning the secrets of coffee roasting in the 1960s, when the city of Matera still lacked profitable businesses. The roasting company\u2019s first location was established way back in 1963, in the heart of the Sassi of Matera, at Via S. Stefano 63, equipped with an old wood-fired machine; it was here that the story of Caff\u00e8 Grieco began, with roots stretching back to a family tradition that has evolved into expertise and experience dedicated to serving the customer. Originally, the product was distributed and sold in various grocery stores, general stores, and small caf\u00e9s throughout the city of Matera. \t\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\tIn the 1960s, to boost coffee sales and phase out the local custom of using barley, a kitchen item was included with every coffee purchase. In the 1990s, Francesco Grieco was joined by his son Cosimo, who actively contributed to the company\u2019s growth, leading to the opening in 2011 of a new facility equipped with state-of-the-art machinery capable of producing high-quality coffee that meets consumers\u2019 tastes. The end result is a coffee with a bold and intense flavor, backed by ongoing research into raw materials sourced from the finest plantations in South America. \t\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” css=”.vc_custom_1523953129022{padding-top: 124px !important;padding-bottom: 85px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/4″ offset=”vc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-6″]
