Green Giant is a historic brand synonymous with canned and frozen vegetables, specifically recognized for its iconic mascot and 'Jolly Green Giant' catchphrase. The brand originated in 1903 in Le Sueur, Minnesota, USA, under the Minnesota Valley Canning Company. Over the decades, it evolved through mergers and acquisitions, notably becoming part of Pillsbury and later General Mills.

In 2015, B&G Foods acquired the Green Giant brand from General Mills for the North American market. However, in Europe and other international regions, General Mills retains ownership of the brand and its operations. The specific product shown, found in the Nordic market (evidenced by the Norwegian/Danish 'Uten Tilsatt Sukker' label), is typically manufactured at General Mills' facility in Labatut, France, which is the primary source for Green Giant sweetcorn distributed across Europe.
