Caffè Gondoliere Espresso coffee capsules

Caffè Gondoliere is a private-label coffee brand primarily sold through the Lidl supermarket chain. While the brand visual identity, featuring Venetian gondolas, evokes an Italian coffee tradition, it serves as a retail-exclusive brand developed for European markets.

Production of these coffee capsules is managed through multiple manufacturing partners across Europe, primarily located in countries with significant coffee roasting industries such as Italy, Germany, or the Netherlands, depending on the specific product line and regional distribution.

Ownership lies with the Schwarz Group, the German multinational retail giant that operates Lidl. As a store brand, it is designed to offer a competitive alternative to premium coffee brands, specifically targeting compatibility with established systems like Dolce Gusto.
