The origins
From a workshop to a family firm
The Urbano family business was started in 1946 in the heart of Messina, where founder Umberto with the help of his wife Emanuela, began roasting small amounts of coffee on an artisan level. The fundamental rule was to choose with the utmost care the highest quality raw beans. The founder’s technical knowledge and sensitivity to the needs of his customers, along with continuing research and experimentation of high quality blends, quickly transformed the small artisan shop into a small family business, fully outfitted with the most advanced equipment and firmly rooted its place in the area

The “5 Blends”
The first big accomplishments
With the second generation arrived Francesco, who joined the family business in the 1970’s and focused the strategic interests of the company in bars and supermarkets on a national level. In the 1980’s it became necessary to further expand and modernize the company, which began to take on more industrial features. Systems with greater power and warehouses were purchased, along with more automatic roasting and packaging processes, all along preserving the company roots as a family business and artisan coffee roaster

Innovation
Cutting-edge Technology for a company projected to the future
By the end of the 1990’s and with the entrance of the third generation into the family business, the sales and marketing strategies evolved even further with the expansion into the international market. In order to adapt to new market demands and to boost sales, the turn of the century brought the opening of a new establishment with the most advanced technology available, with great capacity for storage, roasting, and packaging and where the experience and sensitivity of three generations of coffee roasters has been passed down, their great ability to select, blend and roast coffee, in order to achieve the aromas and flavors that have allowed the company to grow and evolve are ever present
