Artebianca Natura e Tradizione was founded in 1984 following thirty years of experience in the artisan bakery sector started by the Rovai family near Lucca in the 1950s.

Panealba has acquired Artebianca Natura e Tradizione from Alto Partners SGR.

Artebianca Natura e Tradizione was founded in 1984 following thirty years of experience in the artisan bakery sector started by the Rovai family near Lucca in the 1950s. The company is active in the sweet pastries market under the “Artebianca” brand with a particular focus on the biscuits segment. The company’s products are sold mainly in Italy through the modern trade channel with presence in major brands (Esselunga, Coop, Conad, etc.).

In 2016 the private equity fund Alto Partners acquires the majority of Artebianca Natura e Tradizione through its subsidiary Dolciaria Val D’Enza.
