Store brand vs name brand — same content, better price

Packaged food, cleaning, personal care, drinks — store-brand alternatives are often made in the same facility with the same content, for far less.

In the supermarket, store-brand (private label) products are often made in the same facilities, with the same content, as well-known brands. Yerine places more affordable alternatives offering the same content and weight side by side.

What you compare

• Content and weight — unit price, the same ingredient list
• Store-brand equivalent — equivalent private-label option
• Additives and origin — additives, place of production
• Unit price — per kilo/litre, not per pack

Why an alternative here?

In the supermarket the biggest saving comes from seeing the unit price and content equivalent. Yerine makes transparent the price differences hidden by pack size.
