Mattia Miatto, Export Manager of MAZZER LUIGI S.p.a., said: “The World of Coffee offers a valuable platform for us to showcase our products to a diverse audience of coffee enthusiasts and industry experts from across the globe. Among the featured items are our coffee grinders, including the Philos Commercial Grinder and the Kony Sg Grinder. The Philos Grinder boasts a distinctive design created specifically for light commercial settings, allowing baristas to achieve exceptional results even in compact workspaces. Designed to be user-friendly and low maintenance, it ensures optimal grinding outcomes with a consistent flow of grains into the grinding chamber. On the other hand, the Kony Sg Grinder is equipped with features for a seamless experience. This includes a built-in load cell for precise and consistent dosing, along with Grind Flow Control (GFC) to prevent clumping and reduce electrostatic charges in ground coffee. This grinder is the ideal choice for medium-sized specialty cafes.”

 “We are thrilled to make our inaugural appearance at the World of Coffee 2024 in Dubai,” said Junior Romero, QC and content creator for Flava Coffee. “This opportunity holds high importance for our new company as we endeavour to fortify our connections with other coffee companies and expand our market presence. Throughout the event, we are unveiling three distinct coffee flavours, highlighting our commitment to supporting coffee farmers and all industry stakeholders, while delivering exceptional quality coffee products.”
