An installation for slicing whole loaves and packaging each sliced loaf in its entirety or in halves after splitting of the loaf that has been sliced in its entirety. The installation comprises a slicing device for slicing whole loaves, and a packaging device which is disposed downstream of the slicing device and is suitable both for packaging a sliced loaf in its entirety and for packaging sliced half loaves. Splitting means are disposed downstream of the slicing device, for splitting a sliced whole loaf into a first and a second half. Adjacent and separate first and second conveyor paths are provided between the slicing device and the packaging device, for conveying the first half and the second half respectively of a sliced loaf. A positioning device is further disposed between the slicing device and the packaging device, which positioning device is designed to turn round a first half of a sliced loaf arriving at the positioning device by way of the first conveyor path and to place said half in the same orientation on the second conveyor path as a second half of a sliced loaf arriving at the positioning device by way of said second conveyor path.
