Established in 1960, Torrefazione Lucchese Caffè S.r.l. developed its corporate mission as a fine coffee importer and roasting company. Torrefazione Lucchese Caffè S.r.l. makes both its own branded products, “Incas”, “Encantado” and “Rocchi”, and private label products.
The company has two packaging lines, one for ground coffee and the other for coffee beans. The overall production capacity is around 2,000 tons / year of roasted coffee and investments are underway to further improve plant performance.
The strengths are represented by the long experience of internal resources, highly qualified and in possession of certified skills, and by the productive and organizational capacity of the company, characterized by a marked dynamism and flexibility. The high computerization of the processes guarantees a lean and efficient traceability system and a punctual control-monitoring of the process parameters.
Purchases are made directly in the main producing countries, where research is always aimed at a high quality standard that must guarantee the absence of defects in the raw material. The roasting takes place with modern production lines but respecting the best Italian artisan tradition. The method used is slow for each species, with the cooking cylinder roaster and the transmission of heat by means of a refractory brick oven. The heat curve is identified for each individual species with computerized control and verification phases. The production process, completely automated with pneumatic movement, is designed to guarantee an optimal result and subjected to rigorous controls in compliance with high quality and hygiene standards that guarantee the compliance of the final product with the mandatory and customer’s health and hygiene requirements.
