Our History

1941

On november 10th, 1941, Don Antonio Cabrales Vega, an Asturian hard working visionary, inaugurates a store for selling coffee, named “La Planta de Café”. The store was founded after having acquired knowledge about the industry working in the company “Al Grano de Café” during his youth.

1960

In adittion to toasted coffee, the company introduced the production of toasted coffee with added sugar.
“La Planta de Café” is launched. With a golden pack and the original coffee maker logo and a cup, this product was packed manually and hot sealed.

1965

Don Antonio’s sons detect the need to enlarge the facilities and buy land in Talcahuano 600, in the city of Mar del Plata. There, they put up a deposit and place the coffee machine. In that same place, two other products would be packed: “Tellevo” and “Big Ben” tea.

1970


This year the company goes under the care of their children and begins the expansion on a large scale. In 1972 land was bought near to Rivadavia’s store, where a foundation for 8 floors was built, with two basements and the sales room is enlarged with an innovative and very modern design.

1980

Several land terrains are annexed: Ayolas, then G. Matteotti and finally Irala, who come to shape the current plant Ayolas. In 1982 the second floor is added to the building in Rivadavia Street, where accounting and directory are installed. In April 1988 the offices and warehouses in Buenos Aires are inaugurated.

1990

The new structure in the Industrial Park Gral. Savio is opened, where the company continued its expansion adding high technology, changing the packaging, improving quality, adding new imported products and major brands. The signature is recognized at international level and the exports begin.

1993

November 18th the first Almacén de Licores store is opened in the street Alberti 1343, Mar del Plata. In December 1996 the building is enlarged with several meters of construction.

1997

On February the 21st, The Art Space Richard Hall was inaugurated as a meeting point for cultural events: painting exhibitions, photographs, books presentations, lectures, etc.
That same year, in November, the second Almacén de Licores store in the street L. N. Alem. was opened.
In 1998 we the company got ISO 9001 and HACCP system certifications due to the investments carried out in technology and staff training.

2000

During June the National Distribution Center in the Industrial Park was opened, where shipments to the entire country are coordinated and containers for abroad dispatch are prepared.
During the same year another Almacén de Licores store is opened in the Shopping Los Gallegos.
In December, 2001, the company took charge of the store in La Plata, to which reforms were made in January 2003.

2005

Top management of the company was handed over to the third family generation and is composed of some of the founder’s descendants. They are mainly concerned for the company growth and new product development with quality as a guiding standard for all the organization.

2009

On April 16th a new store was opened in Buenos Aires, Recoleta, where besides the company products and on-sight grounded coffee, there is a wide variety of delicatessen and imported high-quality products.

2010

Strategic alliances

During this year, together with La Serenisima, a ready to drink product line was developed: Cappuccino, Cappuccino Light, and Café Latte.

The campaign concept was: “The typical italian cappucino flavor comes together with our best coffee and La Serenisima’s best milk”

In 2011 due to a joint-venture with Philips, a new coffee line for the Philips Senseo machines was developed. In different regions of the world, Philips has paired with the main coffee brands.

This new venture implied an important investment for the company, acquiring new Italian machinery, developing new packaging, and staff training.

2015

A new store is opened on the cultural and commercial walk “Aldrey” in Mar del Plata. During 2015 an automation project was implemented in order to improve our product’s quality, plant productivity and the everyday work of our staff.

We improved our products presentations and enlarge our productive capacity.
This meant being able to increment our stock and being able to satisfy our growing demand.
