The company history of Illy

Illy was founded in 1933 by Francesco Illy, an inventor and visionary whose achievements included the preservation of roasted coffee. The coffee cans he invented were exported to many countries at the time. His son Ernesto Illy joined the company in the late 1940s and had the idea of ​​selling the coffee cans to consumers. Thus, the smaller portions of coffee were born. The Illy company quickly became one of the most important coffee manufacturers. Today, the Italian company sells its coffee in over 140 countries and has also made it onto the list of the Most Ethical Companies in the World several times.
