This story began in Matera in 1976, when the Laurieri brothers Nicola and Francesco opened a small bakery in the centre of Matera, a town known throughout the country for the quality of its bread products (Bread of Matera). Until the early 1990s, the small business was dedicated to the production and retail sale of their products and their supply to other bakeries in the area. A few years have passed, but the passion for simple and genuine flavours has remained. Laurieri snacks can now be found wherever the culture of good Italian food is appreciated.
