EDEKA Bio Walnusskerne (Walnut Kernels)

EDEKA Bio Walnusskerne is a private-label organic nut product from EDEKA, Germany's largest supermarket corporation. As a private label, the product is packaged specifically for the retailer. The brand EDEKA traces its roots back to 1898 when several cooperative grocery stores in Berlin merged to form the 'Einkaufsgenossenschaft der Kolonialwarenhändler im Halleschen Torbezirk zu Berlin'.

While the brand is quintessentially German, the walnuts themselves are typically sourced from global organic agriculture to meet seasonal and quantity demands. The manufacturing and packaging processes are managed under the EDEKA Zentrale Stiftung & Co. KG. The ultimate owner is the EDEKA Group, a cooperative structure owned by its independent retail members.
