Gartenkrone Silberzwiebeln

Gartenkrone Silberzwiebeln (silverskin onions) are a popular preserved vegetable product primarily sold under the private label brand of the discount retailer ALDI. As a private label, Gartenkrone is specifically developed for and marketed by ALDI, maintaining a reputation for providing high-quality pantry staples at affordable prices. The silverskin onions are typically preserved in a vinegar-based brine with salt and sugar, making them a common accompaniment for salads, raclette, or cold platters.

While the Gartenkrone brand is owned by ALDI, the actual production is handled by various food processing companies across Europe. A major supplier for ALDI's pickled goods is Mamminger Konserven, based in Bavaria, Germany, which specializes in pickled cucumbers and onions. As of 2026, ALDI remains one of the world's largest discount supermarket chains, with its ultimate ownership split between ALDI Nord and ALDI Süd (North and South), both headquartered in Germany. The brand origin traces back to the Albrecht family’s original store in Essen, Germany, which eventually grew into the global retail giant known today.
