Esso Diesel

Esso Diesel — origin, manufacturing and ownership

Esso is a global retail and fuels brand that is a trading name controlled by ExxonMobil; the Esso name traces back to the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey ("Jersey Standard"). (en.wikipedia.org)

Esso-branded diesel fuel is not manufactured in a single country — finished diesel sold as "Esso" is produced and supplied from ExxonMobil's global refining and supply network and from regional affiliates (for example Imperial Oil in Canada supplies Esso-branded fuels there). This means Esso diesel is manufactured in multiple countries and local markets are typically supplied from nearby refineries, terminals, or licensed distributors. (en.wikipedia.org)

The original company behind the Esso name was Standard Oil of New Jersey (the Jersey Standard), which marketed products under the Esso name from the early 20th century. Over decades of industry consolidation and after the Exxon–Mobil history, Esso is now a brand under Exxon Mobil Corporation. (en.wikipedia.org)

ExxonMobil is the ultimate owner of the Esso brand; the corporation is U.S.-based and operates global production and marketing operations. Corporate filings and company disclosures list ExxonMobil's principal executive offices in the United States, and the company has consolidated and reorganized its corporate campus and leadership locations in recent years as part of broader business moves.

ExxonMobil periodically restructures, sells or transfers regional Esso assets (for example the company announced the sale of its interest in Esso Thailand in 2023), which illustrates that local production, refining and retail ownership of Esso-branded operations can vary by country.

Summary: Esso Diesel is a diesel transport fuel sold under the Esso brand (a trading name originally from Standard Oil of New Jersey) and today controlled and marketed by ExxonMobil. Finished diesel for Esso stations is produced in multiple countries via ExxonMobil refineries, regional affiliates (such as Imperial Oil in Canada) and local distributors or licensees, so the correct manufacturing designation is "Multiple countries."
