Illycaffè posts 19% revenue growth in first half of 2026

Illycaffè reported a 19% increase in first‑half 2026 revenue, reaching €373 million (about R$2.2 billion) and a 10% rise in EBITDA to €53 million. The growth was driven by higher volumes in its core markets, especially Italy and the United States, despite a roughly 20% rise in green‑coffee prices.

The company opened a new roasting plant in Trieste as part of a capacity‑doubling plan and signed a strategic agreement with Westrock Beverage Company to develop and bottle a new product line for the U.S. market. CEO Cristina Scocchia said the results reflect “the quality of our strategic decisions and the value of our team.”
