Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee Machine

The Nespresso brand, synonymous with luxury espresso systems, was invented by Eric Favre in 1976 while working for the Swiss multinational Nestlé. The system originally launched in the mid-1980s as a high-end solution for office and home coffee preparation, eventually becoming a global leader in the portioned coffee segment. The VertuoPlus model shown in the image represents a newer generation of Nespresso technology that utilizes centrifugal brewing to create a range of coffee sizes beyond traditional espresso.

Nespresso machines are manufactured through various global partnerships with specialized appliance companies such as Krups, Magimix, De'Longhi, and Breville/Sage. Consequently, assembly occurs in multiple countries, primarily within Europe (such as Hungary and Ukraine for Krups/Magimix models or China for others). The brand remains a core subsidiary of Nestlé S.A., maintaining its headquarters and primary coffee capsule production in Switzerland while distributing its proprietary hardware worldwide.
