History. Planters Peanut Company was founded in 1906 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania by Amedeo Obici, and incorporated two years later as the Planters Nut and Chocolate Company. In 1916, a young schoolboy, Antonio Gentile submitted drawings of an anthropomorphic peanut to a design contest.

Peanuts come from Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, Oklahoma, Texas; almonds and pistachios from California; cashews from India; and filberts from Turkey. They're stored and processed in three buildings totalling 575,000 square feet, about the size of 10 football fields.

Planters was founded by Italian immigrant Amedeo Obici in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. He started his career as a bellhop and fruit stand vendor in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Obici later moved to Wilkes-Barre, opened his own fruit stand, and invested in a peanut roaster.

Each peanut is finely seasoned with sea salt to enhance the natural roasted nut flavor. These perfectly roasted peanuts have 7 grams of protein and are a good source of vitamin E. Free of cholesterol and trans-fat, PLANTERS® Peanuts have 14 grams of fat per serving and are the perfect on-the-go salty snack.

According to the dictionary, a planter is “a decorative container, of a variety of sizes and shapes, for growing flowers or ornamental plants”, so a planter is a container where you can plant some plants.

One of the primary advantages of using planters in your garden is their mobility. Since decorative garden planters allow you to keep your plants in a contained space, you can easily move them around according to your décor preferences or follow the sun according to seasonal changes.
