Kroger has a generic branded version of pretty much everything in their store. How do they make all of it? There are different recipes, molds, and entirely different production processes for most of this stuff. Do they buy each product off of someone else and put on their own packaging, or do they really make it all themselves? (And if so, where are all these factories?)

I’m a consumer safety inspector in the food industry.
Sone companies will pay a company/factory, could be anywhere, to produce their product. They’ll meet with management about what standards they want their products to meet and it’s up to the factory to keep up with those standards. If lots of customer complaints pile up, the factory/company loses that contract.
They then look for another company to try to get their product made through.
I’ll use my personal experience as an example. I used to grind and mix meats to make sausage. We used spices, and had formulas in order to make the product. We made about 9 different types of sausage for Sam’s Club.
A lot of those formulas were extremely similar to others that we made for other people like Aldi.
Most chicken plants, supply a lot of people chicken. They just slap a different logo on it.
