The President of FIPE-Confcommercio, Lino Enrico Stoppani, has addressed the concerns over the significant increase in coffee prices, with Arabica and Robusta blends surging by over 60% and 90% respectively in the past year.

Despite these challenges, Italian public establishments have absorbed most of the cost increases, trying to limit the impact on consumers.

The Federation also highlighted that price increases in different cities are not as drastic as suggested in the media and emphasized a decrease in the number of companies engaging in bar activities over the past decade.

In these conditions, increases become inevitable, despite the attention, responsibility and interest of Public Establishments to protect the consumption of a cup of coffee, also a symbol of the identity and values of Italian sociality”. This is the comment of Lino Enrico ...
