Loacker is an iconic Italian brand with nearly a century of history, founded by Alfons Loacker in 1925 in Bolzano, South Tyrol. The brand is celebrated for its commitment to high-quality ingredients, particularly its use of Italian hazelnuts and mountain water from the Alps. The Napolitaner variety shown is one of their most popular flavors, featuring crispy wafer layers and hazelnut cream.
Manufacturing remains rooted in the heart of the Alps, with primary production facilities located in Auna di Sotto (South Tyrol, Italy) and Heinfels (East Tyrol, Austria). This geographical positioning allows the company to maintain strict quality control and utilize fresh mountain air in their cooling processes.
Ownership of the brand has remained private and independent through generations, currently held by the Loacker family (A. Loacker SpA). Unlike many other global snack brands that have been acquired by large conglomerates, Loacker continues to operate as a family-run business, ensuring its legacy of traditional confectionery craftsmanship continues into 2026 and beyond.
