Del Monte Peach Slices in Light Syrup

Del Monte is one of the world's most iconic heritage brands, dating back to 1886 when it was first used as a coffee brand in California. By the early 20th century, it became synonymous with high-quality canned fruits and vegetables under the California Fruit Canners Association.

Today, the ownership of the Del Monte brand is fragmented globally. The Del Monte Pacific Limited (DMPL) operates the brand in many territories including North America (through Del Monte Foods) and parts of Asia. Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. exists as a separate entity for fresh produce. The specific canned product shown, particularly within European and African markets, is often managed under the Del Monte Pacific umbrella or via regional licenses.

Manufacturing occurs in multiple countries strategically located near orchards to ensure freshness. Major production centers include Greece, South Africa, and the Philippines, depending on the seasonal availability of the fruit and the specific market the product is intended for.
