Alesto Cashew Kernels

Alesto is a private-label brand exclusively distributed by the German supermarket giant Lidl. While the brand is German in origin, the cashew kernels themselves are sourced globally from major producing regions such as Vietnam, Ivory Coast, or India, depending on seasonal availability and quality standards. The packaging and distribution for the European market are managed by Lidl-affiliated entities or specialized contractors like Solent GmbH & Co. KG. As a private label, the ultimate control and ownership reside with the Schwarz Group, which operates Lidl and Kaufland. The brand positions itself as a provider of high-quality, affordable snacks including nuts, seeds, and dried fruits across Europe.
