Caffè Kamo

About us

Kamo is a registered trade mark of Projeko srl; the company, founded in 2012 by the Rubino brother and sister team, Michele and Marizia, operates in the sector of roasting and distribution of coffee.
The activity is the result of the remarkable, decades-long expertise developed by the founders and by their highly qualified team of experts and managers.
In June 2015 the company launched Kamo, the new brand in the distribution line to coffee bars, which constitutes the backbone of the company’s industrial project.

Mission

We produce high quality blends of coffee, resulting from our passion for this product and our experience in the coffee sector.
We monitor the whole process, from the purchase of the green coffee in the countries of origin, to the processing and marketing.
With the new Kamo brand we aim to re-establish espresso coffee among the products of excellence of the Campania Region.

Let us tell you a story…

Let us tell you a story.
It’s the history of the Rubino family that for three generations has been closely linked to the history of coffee in Naples.
In fact, after the second world war, the Rubino family were already active in this sector; in those days coffee was bought at the grocer’s and blended and roasted at home.

But things were changing. The first coffee-roasting activities were springing up in the back-shops of the cafés. And Francesco Rubino, a young helper in his father’s pastry shop, was one of the first coffee-roasting pioneers.
Among the delicacies offered by the small family concern, coffee was their biggest attraction. Word spread about the special espresso, to the extent that people came from every corner of the city.

The first roasting plant

So in 1953 Francesco opened a small roasting plant in Naples, in via Poggioreale, where he devoted all his energy and passion exclusively to coffee, to the selection, blending, roasting and sale.
The aroma and flavour of the blends created with such dedication were so irresistible that the volume of business sharply increased and it was soon necessary to find bigger, specifically built premises. The location chosen was Melito, outside the gates of the city and at the time a country area.

Family passion

The family conversations, in which Francesco’s son and daughter Michele and Marizia also took part, often centred round the topic of coffee and discussions on the latest Santos quotations, between one tasting and another of the newly created blends.
The frequent trips to Brazil to visit the plantations and fazendas, to learn about the different types of coffees and understand the differences; the sleepless working nights to create the special blend that would cause a sensation all over the city: these were the details that reflected Francesco’s passion for coffee.

The tradition continues…

A passion naturally passed on to the children, Michele and Marizia, the founders of Projeko, the company specialized in the production and marketing of the blends of the Kamo brand. Today, just like then, the best varieties of green coffees are selected, roasted, and blended to offer the consumer unique and unmistakable espresso. And so the family tradition continues…
