A journey
through history

210126_globalsite_chisiamo_gruppoilly_800x600
Gruppo illy. The mark of taste

To develop a pole of excellence in taste: with this aim the Illy family creates Gruppo illy SpA, which controls the brands Domori, Dammann Frères, Mastrojanni, Agrimontana.

Led by the President Riccardo Illy, it has the mission of enhancing companies in which an entrepreneur has translated the passion for quality into a philosophy of growth.

The attention to colonial products, confectionery and complementary to coffee, is a return to the origins: at the beginning of the 1930s, when the entrepreneurial history of the Illy family begins, the passion for coffee joins that for other exotic and exquisite products.
