History
The company was founded in 1925 in the historic city center of Bolzano by the Austrian confectioner Alfons Loacker.[3][4] Back then, he opened a small store with two assistants in Piazza Domenicani.[5] In 1974, Loacker moved away from the city, marking the transition from a small regional bakery to an industrial reality. Armin Loacker, Alfons' son, chose the Renon plateau in the heart of the Dolomites
