These protein crackers, known as Gallette Proteiche with red lentils, are a private-label product of Esselunga, one of Italy's most prominent supermarket chains. The brand Esselunga was founded in Milan in 1957 by Bernardo Caprotti and American businessman Nelson Rockefeller, introducing the concept of modern supermarkets to Italy.

Today, Esselunga remains a family-owned Italian powerhouse, with production and sourcing primarily focused within Italy to support local agriculture and industry. The product is manufactured in Italy, often through dedicated local facilities or strategic partnerships that adhere to the company's quality standards. Esselunga S.p.A. maintains full ownership and operational control from its headquarters in Limito di Pioltello, Milan.
