Milbona Yogurt with Fruit (Kiwi)

Milbona is a prominent private-label brand primarily associated with the German discount supermarket chain Lidl. This specific product is a fruit yogurt, identifiable by its packaging and the barcode (4002971011203).

Products under the Milbona brand are manufactured by various dairy processing companies across Europe to meet Lidl's specifications. The health mark 'DE BY 77721 EG' visible on the container indicates that this specific unit was produced in Germany by Gropper (Molkerei Gropper GmbH & Co. KG), a major dairy supplier based in Bissingen, Bavaria.

As a private label, the brand Milbona is owned by the Schwarz Group, which is the parent company of Lidl. The Schwarz Group is one of the largest retail groups globally, headquartered in Neckarsulm, Germany. This ownership structure allows for vertical integration where the retail group controls the branding and quality standards while outsourcing actual production to specialized dairy facilities.
