Almost any major “grocery store” (Walmart, CostCo, Kroger, Publix, etc) and their brand (Great Value, Kirkland, etc.). The supply chain sources back to the same core manufacturers in many cases - especially for consumer goods.

I’ve watched a well known Butter brand produced (in a perfectly clean and well run way) but then packaged into its branded box, also into regional supplier brand boxes, and then also great value 🙃. All side by side by side lines from the same “batch run”.

My advice would be to see if you really can tell the difference in branded and non-branded items on the grocery shelf, if you remove the marketing from the major brands you know from the equation.

We still have brands we like as well, haha! I’m a Sweet Baby Ray’s fan for BBQ sauce for example - and nothing else 😆

I don’t drink coffee, but some of Costco’s Kirkland brand is made by Starbucks. They also sell Starbucks because the brand is so strong. Costco’s brut champagne is sold for $20 and is made by a French company who sells their own for about double the price. Years ago, I bought a Kirkland jacket that I only pull out in the winter. I was with a friend who had a North Face jacket on, and they looked very similar. I’m sure there are many more examples of this.

I have worked in manufacturing leadership for years. The companies I have worked for make packaging for consumer goods. Our customers are all of the brands you have heard of and buy. I have visited many many many production facilities that are putting the exact same product, in the same facility and on side-by-side lines, into name brand on one line, and off brand/regional brands on the other.

We value shop, knowing this. 😂

A few examples does not mean all off brand all the same as all branded. I've worked in cpg forever, the majority of off brand is not the same as branded.

She was the first performer I ever saw live. I was in ROTC at UT and we got offered $25 to stand near the stage as security. I was not overly excited initially, but, damn what a freaking show. She was unbelievable. I have not been to a ton of shows, maybe 40-50, but that is still one of the best.
