Alois Dallmayr, which is usually abbreviated to Dallmayr, is the largest delicatessen business in Europe, and one of the best-known German coffee brands: The company Dallmayr can look back on an over 300-year history and is still in family ownership today. The corporate group has meanwhile been divided into four business units: "Delicatessen and Gastronomy" (which also includes the Stammhaus (original store) in Munich, attracting around 2.8 million visitors per year ), "Party & Catering", "Coffee & Tea", and finally "Vending & Office", i.e. the sale of drinks and snack vending machines (see also the section Business units within the company today).

The origins of this company can be traced back to the year 1700. At this time, the Munich merchant Christian Reitter ran a business which is considered the direct precursor of the present company. Around 1870, the business came into the ownership of Alois Dallmayr, whose name the company still bears today. He sold the business to Therese and Anton Randlkofer in 1895. Under the management of Therese Randlkofer, a remarkable businesswoman for that time, the Stammhaus (original store) developed into one of the leading delicatessen houses in Europe, with no less than 15 royal purveyor titles. In 1933, Dallmayr’s coffee era began: In this year, a coffee merchant from Bremen, Konrad Werner Wille, came to Munich and established a specialist coffee department in the "Delikatessenhaus Dallmayr" which still exists today, and which has achieved international renown, amongst other things, due to the television advertisement for Dallmayr Prodomo. The coffee business developed so successfully that in 1985 it was established as a spin-off, the independent subsidiary Alois Dallmayr Kaffee OHG, which represents "Coffee & Tea", now the largest business unit in the company. The Nestlé corporate group acquired an interest in Alois Dallmayr Kaffee OHG to 50%; this was reduced to 25% in 2003. In July 2015, it was agreed that the remaining coffee sector shares should be re-purchased from Nestlé by Alois Dallmayr KG, but that the cooperation was to be continued in sales.

Today, the Alois Dallmayr company headquarters is located in Dienerstraße 14–15 in Munich’s old town. Florian Randlkofer and Wolfgang Wille both hold responsibility as personally liable shareholders of the parent company, Alois Dallmayr KG. The Dallmayr Group achieved a turnover of around EUR 900 million for the fiscal year 2014, of which at least EUR 500 million was generated in the "Coffee & Tea" business unit, EUR 360 million in the "Vending & Office" business unit and EUR 40 million in the "Delicatessen and Gastronomy" and "Party & Catering" business units.
