The brand was established in Croatia during the late 1980s and named after the Austrian businessman, Walter Wolf.
It was introduced to the European market during the Yugoslav Wars following the movement of refugees to Central Europe.
Pack design
The product's logo is a red W with the stylized injected relief of a wolf, and was designed in Switzerland in the 1970s. From the 2000s onwards, the design has been subject to intellectual property rights protection.
