What is the history of Nespresso?
Eric Favre and his wife, Anna-Maria, had a constant challenge. She, of Italian origin, insisted that her compatriots were the ones who knew the most about coffee. He, Swiss, packaging engineer at Nestlé, wanted to show that this could change.
The couple traveled to Rome, to the Sant Eustachio cafe, which according to the guides had the best espresso in the city, they sought to decipher it. After that experience, Favre dedicated himself to devising a mechanism that would allow anyone to make a perfect espresso without being a barista.
It was the 70s. “Coffee was seen as an element of the family basket, almost a basic necessity,” says Mathieu Colombier, Nespresso coffee ambassador.
What does the Nespresso Logo mean?
The N in the logo recalls feminine heels, those of Favre’s wife’s friends who, delighted with his coffee, encouraged him to continue.
Nestlé, for its part, had Nescafé, the queen brand of instant coffee. For this reason, Favre had a lukewarm reception when he presented his first aluminum capsule and the machine to extract the coffee. Finally, Nespresso saw the light in 1986.
Colombier says that the Nesspresso logo has the monogram of two female heels in the initial N, reminding us that if Favre did not give up, it was his wife’s friends who were delighted by the trial coffee they were served at his house.
“Nespresso is quite masculine, our brand ambassador is George Clooney. But the heels speak of the female influence in the birth of him”.
The beginnings of Nespresso
At first it was just four combinations of coffee. The capsule has changed little in terms of design, but its content has changed, with fixed flavors and special editions.
Its success was due to the ability to condense in it all the variables: raw material, quantity, roasting, grinding and other necessary factors in an excellent cup.
In 1991, Nespresso, concerned about the use of its capsules after the preparation of coffee, established a recycling campaign for these elements, which is still in force. “The issue of recycling is part of our DNA,” says the brand’s ambassador.
Nespresso Online
In 1996, when the Internet was just taking off, it was one of the first brands to open online sales. In 1998, Nestlé set it aside (almost independent), since the brand required a direct relationship with customers, outside of supermarkets and stores.
Two years later, in 2000, Nespresso opened its first boutique in Paris as a form of premium positioning. “We entered the luxury market, as the most accessible luxury of all,” says Colombier.
Nespresso Sustainable Quality
In 2003, Nespresso launched its Triple A sustainable quality project, which today brings together 110,000 coffee growers around the world who supply it with high-end coffee (34,000 farms are Colombian).
Nespresso’s success was due to the ability to condense all the variables: raw material, quantity, roasting, grinding and other factors that influence an excellent cup.
