Illycaffè 2026 revenue surge

Overview

Illycaffè reported first‑half 2026 revenue of €373 million, a 19% increase year‑on‑year, and EBITDA of €53 million, up 10%. Growth was driven by higher volumes across its core markets—particularly Italy, the United States and Europe—despite a roughly 20% rise in green‑coffee raw‑material costs.

The company opened a new roasting plant in Trieste as part of a capacity‑doubling plan and signed a multi‑year strategic agreement with Westrock Beverage Company to develop and package a new product range for the North American market. CEO Cristina Scocchia described the period as “extraordinary,” noting that the strategic decisions and workforce value underpin the company’s resilience in a challenging market.

The Westrock partnership will support ready‑to‑drink coffee cans for the expanding North American demand while keeping roasting operations in Italy, reinforcing Illycaffè’s premium positioning and recent strategic investments.
