Segafredo Zanetti

Segafredo Zanetti Australia Pty Ltd was founded in 1999 as a subsidiary of the global Segafredo Zanetti group. The parent company originated in 1973 when Massimo Zanetti, a third-generation coffee merchant, bought his first roasting plant in Bologna, Italy. The Australian entity was established with a mission to spread Italian espresso culture and quality to the Australian market. The firm covers the full coffee supply chain, from bean cultivation at plantations to blending, roasting, and distribution. It sells directly to businesses (cafes, restaurants, hotels) and consumers through its online store and retail equipment. The company also offers coffee machines, fresh beans, and equipment for home and office use. Its product range includes signature blends tailored to Australian tastes. Segafredo Zanetti Australia operates from Alexandria, New South Wales, and cites a sister branch in New Zealand. The global Segafredo Zanetti group reports production of espresso coffee across multiple international markets, though no Australian-specific revenue or employee numbers are disclosed. No recent operational events are publicly documented. The firm differentiates itself through vertical integration and its connection to Italy’s largest espresso brand. Its parent company controls the entire production chain from farm to cup, a structure rare among Australian coffee roasters that typically source green beans from third-party suppliers.
