Alesto Candied Peanuts

Alesto is a private label brand primarily associated with the German international discount retailer Lidl. The brand offers a wide variety of nuts, dried fruits, and snack mixes, positioning itself as a value-driven alternative to mainstream snack brands. As a private label, Alesto products are manufactured by various third-party suppliers across Europe and beyond, with production locations often varying depending on the specific nut type and regional distribution needs.

The brand was developed by Lidl to provide high-quality snacking options under their own umbrella, ensuring consistent sourcing and pricing. Ownership of the Alesto brand lies with the Lidl & Schwarz Group (Schwarz Gruppe), a massive retail conglomerate headquartered in Neckarsulm, Germany. The Schwarz Gruppe is one of the world's largest retailers, also owning the Kaufland hypermarket chain, and it maintains strict control over the Alesto supply chain to meet its global quality standards.
