“Caffé Sospeso” is a tradition that began in Naples in the late 1800s. It’s a simple yet powerful gesture of generosity—where someone pays for two coffees but only receives one, leaving the other "suspended" for someone else. Anyone in need can later inquire if a sospeso is available, and they would receive a coffee, free of charge. This tradition, passed down through generations, reflects a thoughtful and compassionate way of looking out for others.

As a company, we recognize our responsibility to give back to those who support us—from our dedicated fair-trade ingredient suppliers to our loyal customers and the communities they engage with. That's why we've established Café Sospeso, our own charitable initiative. Through this program, we donate a portion of our profits to support local charities and causes in the communities where we operate.

Cafés are more than just places to grab a coffee; they serve as essential community spaces that contribute to the social, economic, and cultural fabric of their neighborhoods. Their role as hubs of connection supports diversity and community initiatives, making them integral to local well-being. Our goal is to extend this impact—creating a positive social, economic, and environmental difference on a much larger scale. This is Café culture.

Cheers to health, wealth, and happiness!
