Alesto Cashews Roasted & Salted

Alesto is a well-known private label brand primarily sold through the German discount supermarket chain Lidl. The Alesto line includes a wide variety of dried fruits and nut products, such as the Roasted & Salted Cashews shown here. Because it is a retail store brand, the manufacturing and sourcing of the raw cashews typically involve multiple countries, including major producers like Vietnam, India, or Ivory Coast, while the processing and packaging often occur in Germany or other European countries to supply regional markets.

As a private label, Alesto is owned and managed by the Schwarz Group, one of the largest retail groups in the world. The brand was developed to provide high-quality snacks at a competitive price point, aligning with Lidl's business model. Ownership remains with the Lidl & Schwarz subsidiaries under the broader Schwarz Group umbrella, based in Germany.
