Estrella Salta Jordnötter

Estrella Salta Jordnötter is one of Sweden's most iconic snack products, known for its distinct roasting process and high quality. The brand Estrella, which means 'star' in Spanish, was founded in Sweden in 1946 by Folke Andersson after he was inspired by potato chips during a trip to Argentina. While originally a potato chip pioneer, Estrella quickly expanded into various nut snacks.

Today, the brand operates as part of the Estrella Maarud Group. Manufacturing for the Swedish market primarily takes place at their historic factory in Angered, Gothenburg, though some nut varieties are sourced and processed across European facilities depending on ingredient availability. Since 2014, the brand has been under the ultimate ownership of Intersnack Group, a major German multinational specializing in savory snacks.
