Kaufland Plastic Shopping Bag

The image features a reusable polyethylene shopping bag distributed by the supermarket hypermarket chain Kaufland in Bulgaria.

Kaufland was founded in Germany and traces its roots back to the Schwarz Group, which also operates Lidl. The first Kaufland hypermarket opened in 1984 in Neckarsulm, Germany.

Today, Kaufland is owned by the German retail conglomerate Schwarz Gruppe (Schwarz Group), headquartered in Neckarsulm, Germany. In Bulgaria, the retail chain operates through its local subsidiary Kaufland Bulgaria EOOD & Co. KD. The shopping bags used in Bulgarian Kaufland stores are sourced from packaging producers such as Extrapack or PTL within Bulgaria and surrounding European manufacturing partners.
