The traditional company LEIMERHistory
The founders
The brothers Josef and Carl Leimer took over the bakery and confectionery Jäger at the main square in Traunstein in 1919. At the same time, they built up a wholesale bakery and supplied the retail trade in Chiemgau and Rupertigau with fine baked goods.
Quality through freshness
The revolutionary idea to no longer produce breadcrumbs from old bread but from especially baked fresh bread was the beginning of an unprecedented success story.
The company flourishes
Under the management of Karl Leimer, the company developed into a leading brand manufacturer.
The slogan
With the start of radio advertising in the 1950s, the well-known slogan became engrained in consumers' minds.
The breadcrumbs from Leimer - with these breadcrumbs, we'll stay.
