Colussi is a storied Italian brand with roots tracing back to 1791 when Giacomo Colussi first established a breadmaking tradition in Venice. The transition from a local artisanal bakery to a modern industrial enterprise occurred in 1911 under Angelo Colussi. Over the decades, the family-run business expanded its portfolio beyond bread and traditional biscuits, such as the famous Venetian 'Baicoli', to include a wide variety of baked goods including these sourdough-fermented crackers.

Today, the brand remains a symbol of Italian culinary heritage, emphasizing traditional methods like slow 24-hour leavening and the use of Mediterranean ingredients such as olive oil and rosemary. While the brand has grown into an international presence, it maintains its identity as a family-led private conglomerate headquartered in Milan, continuing to produce its hallmark items within Italy to preserve authenticity and quality standards.
