OUR HISTORY

Originally established in 1981, Comobar started its journey with the “Comobar System”.  By partnering with the Italian company Trial, Comobar became the exclusive importer of a fully automatic compact espresso machine. The system was sold together with a dedicated and concentrated espresso product.  A few years later, the Comobar System became known nationwide within the American coffee industry.  The Comobar System targeted the OCS segment as well as homes.

Five years later, Comobar added a steamer unit to the system that enabled automatic frothing of milk for the preparation of cappuccino; tripling the existing base of distribution within the United States. For years since, Comobar has achieved market penetration in the wholesale distribution of cappuccino and espresso Coffee Equipment and supplies to the Foodservice and OCS industries.

As the new millennium started and the demand for innovative products increased within the American market, Comobar started the distribution of single serve espresso capsules and started manufacturing its equipment in the United States in order to offer the American market products made in USA.  Comobar launched the XL fully automatic cappuccino espresso machine as well as the steamer EZ-System 300; which partnering with Espresso Italia Srl enabled the company to provide the American market with the “Comobar System of the new Millennium”

A few years later Comobar opened its production factory overseas with final assembly in the United States.  The company continued to launch new and improved models ever since.

As the demand for single serve coffee increases within the American market, so are Comobar’s efforts to provide its clientele with an affordable and easy to use single serve American system producing Caffé Americano.

After two years of extended market research Comobar LLC launched ComoCup its new single serve coffee capsule.  ComoCup delivers a consistent brew or as we better desbribe, it's “Simplicity to Reach Perfection” ™
 

In 2014 Mr. Paolo Cometto took over as managing partner building new relationships, designing new machines, technology & expanding the entire line of products to be distributed through our distribution outlets. Mr. Cometto has also created a new line of home machines and capsules to be sold directly to the home consumer through retail outlets.

In 2015-2016 Comobar has continued to lead the way in innovative design of their manufactured machines and were featured on the cover of Coffeitalia directory which is the “bible” to the Italian coffee industry.
