Founded in 1883 by Antonio Pascucci, the company began trading coffee and other colonial products. Over the years, it grew into an industrial-scale roastery, installing its first roasting plant and adopting indirect fire roasting in 1963. In the late 1990s, under Mario Pascucci's leadership, the company expanded internationally and opened the first *Caffè Pascucci Shop* in Rimini in 2000. The company's Espresso School was established in 1996 to promote quality in espresso making.
