About us
We are a brand which has been born into mother nature. It's time to create a new feeling.
After looking at alternatives
Our journey began in 1900
Starting from the early years of the 1900s, coffee becomes “espresso”, meaning prepared at the moment, an innovation that improves its quality. The exotic beverage becomes the protagonist of various advertisement campaigns that aim to make it popular, and word of the new beverage reaches Florence. In the Renaissance’s birthplace, the young Giuseppe Bambi owns a small machining workshop; Mr. Ascanio Galletti, an entrepreneur, commissions him the production of a 2-group, vertical boiler espresso machine, the Fiorenza.
A perfect fit for your every day life
Designed to be versatile
In 1961, the extraction pressure is stabilized at 9 bar by the introduction of the volumetric pump, that maintains the pressure constant and changes the extraction process once again. In the same year, the Bambi Brothers open a new factory on the hills north of Florence, where the espresso machines workshop is paired with a carpentry producing bar furniture.
Due to the new location, in 1966 they are spared by the flood that hits Florence, and they help their clients back on their feet for free, in order to help them reopen their bars at the earliest.
Simplicity in design and form
We’re just getting started
In 1995, La Marzocco welcomes its new American partners and reorganizes its structure, beginning a slow growth thanks to a new generation. La Marzocco modernizes its brand and opens to new markets.
From 2000 to 2008 La Marzocco is the official sponsor of the World Barista Championships; the sponsorship helps connecting the brand with several world barista champions, that become brand ambassadors.
