Fracino is a well‑regarded British brand and the UK’s only manufacturer of commercial espresso and cappuccino machines, based in Birmingham and operating as a family‑owned business since the early 1960s . Renowned for producing around 90% of its components in‑house - fabricating, machining and assembling stainless steel, copper and brass parts - it combines British craftsmanship and robust engineering at scale.

Fracino’s award‑winning portfolio includes traditional, hybrid, dual‑fuel (gas/electric) and compact manual‑fill machines - such as the Cherub, Bambino, Contempo and Retro series - suited to cafés, hotels, gastro‑pubs, mobile operations and even domestic prosumer users. Noted for expanding into over 70 countries, the brand has earned high‑profile contracts - such as with PizzaExpress and Subway - and continues to invest significantly in automated manufacturing facilities and export growth.

We provide leasing options for orders over £1,000 (ex. VAT) through our trusted partner, Kennet Leasing. Leasing is a popular choice for businesses looking to spread the cost of essential equipment without a large upfront payment.

With a finance lease, you make manageable monthly payments over an agreed period, helping to preserve your cash flow while gaining access to everything you need. This flexible approach suits limited companies and other business customers.

Our leasing packages can cover a full coffee setup tailored to your requirements. This might include espresso machines, grinders, maintenance plans, accessories, and even freshly roasted coffee, ensuring your business is fully equipped from day one.

With Kennet Leasing, you rent the equipment rather than own it during the term, but after one final payment at the end, you then own the equipment.

A transfer of ownership fee applies at the end of the agreement. Quotes may vary depending on individual circumstances. Finance agreements are arranged through a third-party provider authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
