Despar Pistachios

This product consists of pistachios branded under the Despar private label, which is part of the international SPAR network. While the agricultural origin of these specific nuts is identified on the packaging as the USA, the product is distributed primarily within the Italian market through the Despar network.

SPAR was originally founded in the Netherlands in 1932 as De SPAR. Today, it operates as a voluntary cooperative of independently owned and operated retailers and wholesalers. In Italy, the Despar brand is managed by several regional consortia that hold the licenses to use the trademark locally, while the global brand remains headquartered in Amsterdam. The distribution and local ownership in Italy are largely handled by entities like Aspiag Service.
