illy is a world-renowned Italian coffee brand known for its high-quality 100% Arabica blends. This specific product is the decaffeinated ground coffee, packaged in its signature pressurized silver tin. The brand was founded in 1933 by Francesco Illy in Trieste, Italy, where the company's headquarters and primary manufacturing facilities remain located to this day.
Ownership has remained remarkably consistent, with the Illy family maintaining control for decades. While the private equity firm Rhône Capital acquired a minority stake (approximately 20%) in 2021 to support international expansion, the company continues to be majority-owned and led by the Illy family heirs. The product is manufactured in Trieste, Italy, and exported to over 140 countries globally, maintaining its status as a symbol of Italian espresso culture.
