Brand and Ownership Overview

Auchan is a private label brand belonging to the multinational retail group Elo (formerly Auchan Holding / Groupe Auchan SA), owned principally by the Association Familiale Mulliez (AFM) based in Croix, France. Founded in 1961 by Gérard Mulliez in Roubaix, France, Auchan has grown into one of the largest hypermarket and supermarket operators in Europe.

Manufacturing and Distribution

In Spain, Auchan operates through its subsidiary Alcampo, S.A. (part of Auchan Retail España). Canned artichoke hearts (corazones de alcachofa) distributed under the Auchan label in Spanish supermarkets are typically sourced and manufactured locally in Spain by specialist canning partners (such as vegetable preservation facilities located in regions like Murcia or Navarre, known for quality canned artichokes).
