In 1927 registers the trade-mark  PortMoka, inspiring the name from the countries of origin of the most prestigious coffee beans, Portorico and Moca (Yemen), with a logo reproducing a Mexican man, image of the new Italian house. A few years later borns the trade-mark Cuoril, one of the first italian decaffeinated blends.

In 1961 the family establishes Verwerkaf as coffee roasting company of the group, which becomes third party producer for more that 200 Italian coffee brands, reaches an international presence with clients in Spain, Holland, Morocco, Greece, USA, China, Germany, Switzerland and Portugal.

In 2011, the almost 100 years passion for the good Italian coffee, pushes the Terrani family, at its third generation with Giacomo and Pietro, to launch in the market a new and modern coffee house concept, “Il Caffè della Terra”.

The new chain gathers a warm and elegant atmosphere, rich of natural elements, where to prepare espressos, cappuccinos and other innovative coffee recipes created by the Company master baristas taught at the inhouse "Accademia del Caffè".
