re: Same manufacturer(s) of many different brands?

Exxon BR supplied all the area gas brands at one time. All the different brand tankers would load up there, except for maybe Texaco which had its own plant not far away.
Terminals tend to share fuel, and the additives get added whenever bulk is broken and the fuel is loaded into trucks.

Eyeglasses/Sunglasses may be the most vertically integrated industry in commerce. Luxottica owns virtually every single major brand, manufacturing, distribution (lenscrafters, Pearle Vision, etc) and owns vision insurance brands as well.

Lawn equipment from the big box retailers are like that. Most of it is made by Modern Tool and Die. They make all Cub Cadet, Craftsman, Troy-Bilt, Remington, Robomow, Rover, Wolf-Garten, Columbia, Yard Machines, and Bolens products.
The power tools as similar. Although their batteries are mostly not interchangeable.

Appliances are funny like that. For instance Kenmore has never made an appliance they just put their names on other stuff.
Haier is GE and monogram and cafe are their high end.
Whirlpool is
Maytag, Amana, Kitchen Aid, Jennaire, Crosley, estate and Roper
Electrolux is Frigidaire.
Allied commercial laundry is Speed Queen.
LG and Samsung are independent but you can use a lot of their parts on either. Dryer heating elements, belts and bearings are interchangeable.

There are 2 types of sugar. Sugar made from sugar cane and sugar made from sugar beets. The cheapest sugar could be beet sugar in some places. I suspect your intention was 'buy the cheapest cane sugar'.

I am pretty sure Stanley tools makes Black and Decker, DeWalt, Craftsman and several other power tool brands.
Dewald used to be my favorite brand of power tool and my friend told me it was just a higher priced Black and Decker. I argued against it just to argue but I guess he was right.

There is a difference between being owned by the same corporate entity and being manufactured on the same production line with the same quality parts and simply changing the label. Most people don't understand that difference.

When my parents house flooded, their Speed Queens sat in 5 ft of water for 3 days and still worked like a champ. I think the dryer may have gotten a bit louder but that was the only issue. Both continued to work until they sold the house several years later.

My speed queen washer was the only thing I cleaned and kept after the flood. It was noisy so we called a repairman and he re-greased the bearings. We have moved twice after the flood and it still works like a champ with zero noise.
