OGGI
The desire to continue to be a reference point for the City remains over time. Courtesy and hospitality are essential features in the art of receiving, aiming to serve the customers with politeness, taste and confidentiality.
To create an emotion that engages the senses and that remains
indelible in the memory
becomes the every day “Mission” of Cova
professionals.
2017
With an elegant restyling of the Flagship,
Cova celebrates two hundred years of glorious
activity. An important
milestone shared with friends and customers,
and enriched by the realization of a dedicated
monograph that celebrates the bicentenary.
2013
In 2013, Cova joins the LVMH Group to
strengthen its positioning
as a prominent pastry shop in the Milanese
scenario and to continue its international expansion. With the strong push given by the entry in the prestigious Holding, Cova consolidates its presence
in the world, thanks to fruitful new partnerships.
1993
The decisive international expansion of the brand, strongly desired by the Patron Mario Faccioli, begins in 1993, when Cova opens his first offshore store in Hong
Kong. The presence of Cova becomes always
more widespread with
stores in Japan, China, in the United Arab
Emirates an Monte-carlo.
1950
Destroyed by a bombing during the Second War World, in 1950 Cova moves from its original venue located at the corner between Via Manzoni and Piazza della Scala towards the current site of Via Montenapoleone 8,
where it becomes an elegant and refined
setting, re-proposing
furnishings and atmospheres borrowed
from the original ones.
1817
It was 1817 when Antonio Cova opened the “Caffe del Giardino”
right next to the Teatro
alla Scala. A fashionable and cosmopolitan
meeting place for the Reinassance patriots, it hosted the “cream” of the high society. The sumptuous interiors and the richness of the furnishings made it immediately
a sophisticated place, frequented by
the aristocracy, the
bourgeoisie and the nobility.
