Noisettes grillées salées sachet de 100g - European Score 99/100

European Score analysis

These salted roasted hazelnuts from the French retailer brand U carry a European Score of 100, achieved through maximum performance across the key structural pillars: company headquarters and manufacturing each contribute 35 points, distribution 15, ingredients 10, and proximity 5. The certifications pillar registers 0, though the product holds a Nutriscore Grade B and the notable label "transformed in France," confirming domestic processing.

The product originates from France and is sold exclusively in France, which contributes to the full proximity score and underlines the short, locally anchored supply chain. Within the roasted hazelnuts category, it outscores 90% of the 40 products assessed — placing it near the very top of its segment. That strong percentile reflects both the high baseline score and the relative scarcity of similarly well-anchored competitors in this niche category.

For a European-minded shopper, the combination of French origin, French transformation, and French distribution makes this one of the more locally coherent snack options available. The 0 on certifications is the sole area where the product could improve, but this is offset by the transparent origin labelling. Shoppers seeking proximity-rooted products with straightforward credentials will find this a compelling and well-ranked option in its category.
