Today, we are pleased to share a major achievement reflecting our over three decades of steadfast commitment into Sustainability, which is a core aspect of our coffee procurement strategy and is well integrated into our company’s processes and practices.   Responsibillyty, our formal sustainability program, has received official recognition from the Global Coffee Platform (GCP), achieving equivalence with the Coffee Sustainability Reference Code (Coffee SR Code), 2nd party assurance system.   The framework, subjected to systematic reviews to support ongoing effectiveness and consistency, is founded on three key pillars: 1.     Enhanced traceability of resources and raw materials throughout the production process; 2.     Reciprocity in relationships with supply chain partners; 3.     Economic, social, and environmental sustainability.   The GCP’s Equivalence Mechanism provides a thorough evaluation, benchmarking sustainability programs against the economic, social, and environmental standards outlined in the Coffee SR Code. We take responsibility for implementing, monitoring, and continuously enhancing sustainability principles within our operations, thereby contributing to more responsible practices across our supply chains. #LIVEHAPPilly #Responsibillyty #GCP #GlobalCoffeePlatform #Sustainability

November 6 in Rome marked a milestone: the 10th Ernesto Illy International Coffee Award, honoring a legacy of excellence and sustainable partnerships with coffee producers worldwide. Because offering the best coffee nature can provide starts with celebrating those who make it possible. In the morning, the Jury tasted and voted on nine exceptional coffees, crowning Ngamba Coffee Washing Station – Sucafina S.A. (Rwanda) as Best of the Best. Consumers around the world chose Finca Villa Mercedes of Agroindustrial Yaya SA de CV (El Salvador) for the Coffee Lover’s Choice Award. The winners were celebrated at a spectacular Gala in Palazzo Colonna, alongside all champions from the past 9 editions, and at FAO, where 27 finalists were honored for their commitment to quality and sustainability. In all the moments that made it, this day was a tribute to those who make our blend unique. Because every extraordinary cup begins with extraordinary growers, and we want to celebrate them so the world can taste our very best. #QualityLovesDetails #LIVEHAPPilly #EIICA2025 #Sustainability

We believe excellence isn’t a destination, it’s a journey we build together. This year, as we celebrate the 10th edition of the Ernesto Illy International Coffee Award, we are going to honor in Rome, on November 6th, our 27 exceptional Arabica growers from 9 origins — the passionate souls behind the varieties that make our blend unique. Among them, we’ll recognize the finest with the Best of the Best and the Coffee Lover’s Choice Award: partners who share our values, our passion, and that healthy obsession with detail that defines who we are. #Staytuned #EIICA2025

Louis Morlae wins the illy Present Future Prize at ArtissimaFair ! Presented by Rose Easton gallery, his work bridges digital and physical worlds, exploring our relationship with technology through artisanal care. For 25 years, we have supported this prize to champion innovation and creativity - values that define our coffee culture. We look forward to Louis’s solo exhibition at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in 2026; in the past edition, the recognition went to Angharad Williams, with the exhibition Portrait, in these days live at the Fondazione. Supporting artists like Louis Morlae reflects our dedication to innovation and quality. It is our way of investing in the ideas that will define tomorrow, creating a dialogue between art and the world we inhabit, where every coffee is a piece of art.

Be yourself. Be illy - is our journey to spark meaningful conversations around Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and to share how we build community within illy. A full month of content and events dedicated to all illy collaborators, designed to reflect on what makes each of us unique and how we can create a more inclusive workplace every day. We kicked off the month with Wonder Bar, a special event where three of our clients – Microbiscottificio Frolla, Caffè Paradiso, and Orsa Maggiore Bistrot – joined our Sales  Managers to share what it means to build workplaces that are inclusive, dignified, and authentic. Three cafés, three stories, one shared vision: doing business by putting people at the center. All people. #BeYourselfBeIlly #DEI #WonderBar #WeAreilly

October is Prevention Month: an important opportunity to remember how early diagnosis, scientific research and prevention practices are fundamental in the fight against female cancers. Every gesture can make a difference, and that's why we've chosen to make a concrete commitment. We're proud to support Fondazione Umberto Veronesi ETS with a symbolic product: our iconic 250g jar decorated in pink, dedicated to scientific research on female cancers [https://lnkd.in/dvvf4y8P] Together with LILT Milano Monza Brianza, we will carry out 1,580 cancer prevention visits for people in economic and social difficulty over the course of the year, thanks to the purchase of illydieci 10-coffee booklets. [https://lnkd.in/daqES3x5] And we want to spread the importance of this message: we've dedicated the equivalent of the value of the coffees served in the Iberia Lounge in Madrid on October 19th to the Asociación Española contra el Cáncer, encouraging travelers to reflect on the importance of prevention. Quality is also in the values we choose to uphold. Join us. Support research. #FondazioneVeronesi #LILT #Asociacionespanolacontraelcancer #NastroRosa #QualityLovesDetails
