Segafredo Zanetti Intermezzo Ground Coffee

Segafredo Zanetti Intermezzo is a classic Italian ground coffee blend, characterized by its strong, full-bodied flavor and authentic espresso profile. The brand's history began in the 1970s when Massimo Zanetti, an Italian entrepreneur from a family of coffee merchants, acquired the Segafredo roasting plant in Bologna. Since then, it has grown into a global leader in the coffee industry.

The coffee is primarily roasted in Italy, though the brand operates 11 state-of-the-art roasting facilities worldwide to supply various markets. Segafredo is unique as it controls the entire production chain, from owning plantations in Brazil, Costa Rica, and Vietnam to the final roasting and distribution process. This vertical integration ensures consistent quality from the bean to the cup.

As of 2026, the brand remains under the umbrella of the Massimo Zanetti Beverage Group (MZB), a multinational coffee giant headquartered in Treviso, Italy. In 2024, the Italian investment firm QuattroR acquired a 50% stake in the group to further fuel its international growth and strategic evolution, while the founder, Massimo Zanetti, continues to serve as the group's chairman.
