Lidl Mayonnaise with Sunflower Oil

This product is a private-label mayonnaise produced for the German discount retailer Lidl. The specific item shown is mayonnaise made with 65% sunflower oil, packaged in a 500ml squeeze bottle.

According to the label, it is manufactured by Conservas El Cidacos S.A., a Spanish company based in Autol (La Rioja) that specializes in preserved vegetables and sauces. While the product is produced in Spain, the Lidl brand originated in Germany in the 1930s. Today, Lidl is owned by the Schwarz Group, one of the largest retail conglomerates in the world, headquartered in Neckarsulm, Germany. This manufacturing arrangement is a typical example of Lidl's strategy to partner with local European suppliers to provide regional markets with private-label goods.
