Covim in 90 seconds

Covim is a modern Genoese coffee roaster with deep historical roots. The present-day company was established in 1991 through the merger of two rival Genoese companies: Coveca, founded in 1969 by Osvaldo Picci with Adone Macoggi and Paolo Guglielmoni, and Compagnia Mediterranea Caffè, founded in 1974 by Federico Solari — a descendant of the Federico Solari who had launched ‘Società Internazionale per la Torrefazione Igienica del Caffè’ in Genoa at the beginning of the twentieth century.

The commercial and administrative headquarters are in Genoa (Via G. Adamoli 241), and the main production site is in Tribogna (province of Genoa, Liguria), covering nearly 20 000 m². A family business with five shareholder families, Covim has established itself as an Italian leader in single-serve coffee and vending, with a strong presence in the Ho.Re.Ca. (hotels, restaurants, cafés) and supermarket sectors. Around 21% of turnover comes from exports (2024).

Each Covim blend reflects the Ligurian and Italian espresso tradition: controlled roasting to preserve aromas, rigorous quality control, and adjustments to parameters according to the origins and seasons of the green coffee. Covim's philosophy: ‘coffee is a living fruit’ — the company adjusts its roasting and grinding parameters according to the harvests to maintain consistent quality over time.

At Cafemalin, Covim coffees are sold in 1 kg bags, with Granbar also available in a pack of 6 × 1 kg, for an office, bar or restaurant.
