About us
Excellence is a mechanism
001
The common thread that guides Cartapani is the pursuit of quality: the modus operandi behind the authentic excellence of Caffè Cartapani
When quality guides every choice, it creates a virtuous circle of value for everyone: suppliers, customers, local area and environment. This is how we have established ourselves as an icon of all things italian, a point of reference in our sector
From the first bicycle deliveries yesterday...to today
Quality since 1951. Domenico and mario cartapani founded ‘costarica caffè dei f.Lli cartapani’, soon shortened to ‘caffè cartapani’. With a second-hand roaster, a grinder, and their first deliveries by bicycle, they began a journey inspired by the pursuit of excelence. Today, as then, the cartapani family selects the best raw coffee, importing the beans directly from their lands of origin. Each origin is individually roasted and expertly evaluated to ensure superior quality. Caffè cartapani, an icon of all things italian
