Loewe Expands Beyond TVs with Plans for High-End Coffee Machines
The German electronics company is diversifying its product portfolio to address financial challenges and shifting market demands.
- Loewe, a historic TV manufacturer, is set to release a high-end coffee machine later this year, designed with technical capabilities similar to those used in restaurants and cafes.
- The company is diversifying its offerings beyond its traditional focus on premium TVs, responding to declining demand for smaller screens and increasing competition in the TV market.
- Loewe's revenue increased to €60 million in 2024 from €44 million in 2023 but remains below pre-insolvency levels of €100–130 million, impacted by global crises such as COVID-19 and conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
- Kylian Mbappé, a renowned football player, serves as a partner and brand ambassador to enhance Loewe's international luxury brand recognition.
- The German market for premium coffee machines, particularly portafilter models, grew by 6% in revenue during 2024, aligning with Loewe's strategic pivot to this growing sector.
