The Story
1942
The history of Marcafè began in 1942, from the idea of Mr. Silvestro Marcozzi, a man with entrepreneurial spirit and passion for his work, who owned a food wholesale business in Teramo.

In order to meet customers' needs, he decided to install a coffee roasting machine in the store; the idea was extremely popular and recognized as a real success.
Over time, the roasting business progressed and the management passed to Mr. Silvestro's sons, Vittorio and Francesco. The latter in particular implemented its development and moved the company to new premises in the Villa Pavone area.

Thanks to the innate talent for art and the unquestionable creativity of Giuliana Marcozzi, Francesco's daughter, the inspirational sketch of the Marcafè brand is conceived and realized.

Later, at the end of the 1980s, the management of the company passed into the hands of Vittorio, who ensured new balances and who, in order to make the presence in the area more widespread, directed his attention and commitment to bars and restaurants.
