“With the boom of coffee culture among the youth in India, it is the right time for a brand like Lavazza – which invests a lot on coffee education, both with consumers and influencers – to open another training centre in India,” he added.
“The facility in Mumbai will mark another milestone in Lavazza’s journey in the country and will further strengthen its foothold in India,” Ramnath said.
Evolved from the Coffee Research and Study Centre and founded in 1979, today the Center’s two units — Coffee Design, with its recipes, and the Espresso School, with its courses — have converged to create a place where the passion for coffee meets the tradition, with a flair for experimentation and innovation.
