The Alnatura Produktions- und Handels GmbH is a chain of organic food supermarkets and producer of organic food headquartered in Darmstadt, Hesse in Germany.
Alnatura currently operates 107 supermarkets in Germany, each with 500 to 800 square meters of retail space, mainly in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate. The company's first supermarket opened in Mannheim, Baden-Wuerttemberg on October 1, 1987.[2]
Products of Alnatura are also marketed in the stores of dm-drogerie markt and Tegut. These cooperations make half of the revenue. In 2012 Alnatura began to cooperate with Migros in Switzerland.[3] Their newest collaboration consists of setting up 30 new Alnatura branches throughout urban centres across Switzerland.[4]
In Luxembourg, Alnatura products are available at Cactus supermarkets.[5]
In 2014 dm decided to introduce their own organic brand which will replace the Alnatura products in the future.
