A History of Ferrari's Coffee

Vittorio Ferrari emigrated from the provence Piacenza in Italy to South Wales at the age of ten in 1912. Later he and his family opened three restaurants and a bakery, these became well known nationally for good service and a friendly atmosphere.

.
In 1960 Anna Ferrari, the youngest daughter of Vittorio purchased a small 2 kilo roaster, and with her husband, toured Italy collecting formulas and ideas to bring back to South Wales.

Her two sons Giancario and Francesco Ferrari have taken over the running of the company. Giancarlo is head of coffee roasting and green bean purchasing and Francesco runs the espresso machine sales & servicing. Both brothers have trained & gained their expertise in Piacenza in Northern Italy.

The Company now also produces and supplies fine Teas including their famous Fairy Glen brand.
