Garant Chia seeds

Garant is a prominent Swedish private label brand launched in 2009 by Axfood AB. The brand was created to provide a high-quality, sustainable, and competitively priced alternative to leading global food brands. It is sold exclusively through Axfood's retail chains, including Willys, Hemköp, and City Gross.

While the brand itself is Swedish, the chia seeds are sourced and packaged in various locations. Information from major Swedish retailers indicates that these products are often processed or handled in countries like Italy or Poland. However, as chia seeds are primarily grown in Latin America (such as Mexico and Argentina) and parts of Asia (like India), the raw material is imported before being packaged under the Garant label for the Swedish market.

Axfood AB, the owner of the Garant brand, is one of the largest food retail companies in the Nordic region. It is ultimately owned by Axel Johnson AB, a historic Swedish family-owned conglomerate with a diverse portfolio spanning retail, logistics, and services.
