LOTUS ANNIVERSARY: 40 years of growth and success

We’ve finally reached the long-awaited 2025, the year of our 40th anniversary!

This is a special year for us, as we will pay tribute to 40 years of our history in several stages and with different initiatives, which you will discover throughout this new year, 2025.

Our story that began in 1985 with a small artisan company manufacturing fast food and snack equipment, with a 500-square-metre warehouse and seven employees working with commitment and passion every day because they believed in the entrepreneurial project with great ambitions for growth. As is clear, time has proven us right: today Lotus is spread out over 9,000 square metres, with 85 employees and 1,400 machines produced per month. Strengthened in numbers, experience and talent, today the same company embraces all areas of professional catering. Just as in the past, and even more so, we believe in a future full of great growth and satisfaction in the global market.

How will we celebrate these 40 years of extraordinary development and compelling international challenges? By giving ourselves the gift of a structural investment that will allow us to grow even more: a fully automated warehouse that will enable us to significantly enhance our production capacity. Speaking of numbers, this investment lays the groundwork for multi-year growth and will result in Lotus producing 2,000 machines per month between now and 2035. An ambitious goal, but at the same time a concrete and achievable one, precisely because of all the work we have done to date.

Therefore, a 2025 that will reaffirm growth as the company's number one goal, but under the banner of the identity and values that have always set Lotus apart and underpinned its success over these 40 years in the international market. For us, growth does not mean distorting Lotus by chasing big numbers, but further reaffirming our strengths and with more resources: the ability to listen to the customer, the flexibility of solutions, the speed and efficiency of service, and fast deliveries everywhere. Because our growth means growth for our partners around the world as well.

This new 2025 presents numerous opportunities to put ourselves to the test. To name but one, Host in Milan, one of the world's most important catering and hospitality fairs, which will see us at the forefront with some important news that we will reveal in due course. In the meantime, we are getting ready to face the new year with even greater commitment and enthusiasm, reinforced by an achievement that makes us proud and we love sharing with all of you.

Happy New Year and...ad maiora!
