History
Landwer Coffee was established by Mr. Moshe Landwer in 1919 in Berlin, Germany. The family operated a small coffee bar and a coffee roasting facility. In 1933 when the Nazis came to power in Germany, the family decided to immigrate to Tel-Aviv, Israel, making it the first coffee roaster company in Israel. Immediately after their arrival, the Landwer family opened their first coffee roasting facility in Allenby Street. Later, when the business expanded the family moved the coffee bar to 123 Allenby Street.
In 1964, the roasting facility was moved to the industrial area in Holon to a hangar of 1000 square meters. In the early 1980s, the Federman family acquired Landwer Coffee from Mr. Shmuel Landwer, the son of Moshe Landwer. Today Landwer Coffee produces and distributes Turkish and Espresso coffee and is the 2nd largest coffee roaster in Israel.
