Kimbo brings the tradition and flavor of the authentic Neapolitan espresso to the Summer Fancy Food 2016 in New York

NEW YORK, June 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Espresso has always been identified as one of the symbols of the Italian tradition. Usually, it is attributed to Italy in a generic manner, but as the company's motto affirms "it's not just from Italy, it's from Naples where espresso is a passion". It is right in Naples where Kimbo has been producing its coffee since 1963, faithful to the Neapolitan tradition.

Kimbo's participation to the Summer Fancy Food will be a strategic opportunity for the company, which intends to transmit the background and the values that are hidden in a cup of espresso to the American market. For Kimbo, drinking a cup of coffee becomes an engaging sensory experience.

"Our mission is to share the experience of Italian coffee around the world, offering quality product the Made in Italy created with the most advanced technologies," says Fabrizio Nucifora, Marketing Director of Caffè Kimbo. "Attending the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York will enable us to bring the US consumer close to the real tradition of blending and roasting, which is what has always distinguished us from all the other Italian brands," concludes Mr. Nucifora.

Still a family company, owned by the third generation of the Rubino family, Kimbo has yearly revenue of around USD 200m and technologically advanced facilities, exporting its high-quality products in over 70 countries.

The respect for tradition is important for Kimbo just as much as its commitment to constant innovation and sustainability.

The participation to this year's Summer Fancy Food confirms Kimbo's commitment to a growing presence on the US market and a strong intent to present itself as key partner for the leading players in the food service and retail industries.
