Slovak Bakery in SereÃÂ, n.p. was established in 1953 by merging several smaller local bakeries and craft workshops (e.g. WECO in Kremnica, Hana in Ruà ¾omberok, Maà ¡krta in Pieà ¡à ¥any, Tatranka in Liptovský Hrádek, etc.). In order to satisfy the demand for long-lasting baked goods and to concentrate production at the expense of inefficient operations in Kremnica, Ruà ¾omberok, and Pieà ¡à ¥any, construction of a new factory in Sered' began in 1962. After its full operation in 1966, production was concentrated in only three locations. Wafers were produced in two Sereàfactories (old and new), the factory in Liptovský Hrádok specialized in the production of biscuits, and the factory in HolÃÂàwas dedicated to the production of tubes and gingerbread. From 1963 to 1968, the production base was part of the branch enterprise Prà ¯mysl trvanlÃÂho peÃÂiva in Prague. Annual production during this period was at the level of 17,000 tons in approximately 70 types of durable bread. At the beginning of 1969, the enterprise became independent as PeÃÂivárne Sereàwith headquarters in Bratislava, which was to enable better management of the enterprise and faster introduction of new technologies, and thus also the growth of production. The largest part of the production was directed to the Czechoslovak market, some was exported to neighboring socialist states (primarily the GDR and Hungary), in the 1980s more than 100 tons were delivered monthly to non-socialist states (especially Saudi Arabia and Kuwait).
In 1992, PeÃÂivárne Sereàwas acquired by à  tefan Kassay and Pavol Jakubec as part of privatization and, together with the Figaro Trnava plant (privatization 1993), they incorporated it into the assets of I.D.C. Holding, a.s., which became one of the most important producer of confectionery and long-life pastries in Slovakia. In 2000, the logo was redesigned with the gradual replacement of the PeÃÂivárne Sereàbrand with its current name, Sedita. In its recent years, Sedita produces around 600 tons of bakery products per week, of which more than 50% is exported to other countries.
The Sedita brand covers about 40 types of products in 5 product categories: wafers, biscuits, gingerbread, sponges, dia. The most known products in chronological development of the market launch:
