ültje Extra Roast salted peanuts

ültje is a leading brand in the nut snack industry, particularly famous in Germany. The brand was founded in 1949 by Richard Russell in Emden, Germany, originally processing peanuts. Since its inception, ültje has locations across Germany, primarily in Schwerte, where the main production and roasting facilities are situated.

Starting as a local family business, it underwent a series of corporate acquisitions. In the late 20th century, it became part of the Oetker Group before being integrated into Intersnack Group in 2008. Intersnack, headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany, is one of the largest manufacturers of savory snacks in Europe, ensuring that ültje remains a staple in the European market while maintaining its German manufacturing roots.
