Sous marque déposée


Explanation:
I think that this might perhaps be slightly more accurate than "marque exclusif" from the first answer. Proprietary, in my opinon, would tend to mean that the brand belongs to the enterprise (in other words "own label") whereas exclusif could be any brand label

comme le mot l\'indique exclusif veut dire qui appartient en propre, une marque sur laquelle l\'entreprise à les droits exclusifs...sa propre marque le plus souvent (comme les produits vendus sous la marque des hypermarchés, cf Monoprix, Leader Price en France, mais fabriqués par d\'autres et vendus ailleurs sous la marque de ces derniers, comme Danone ou Panzani...) pas même notion que marque déposée (registered trademark) même si la marque Monoprix par ex est une marque déposée bien sûr.

sous une/sa propre marque


Explanation:
In my opinion it means that the product manufactured by 'A' is sold by 'B' under the proprietary label of 'B'. So the name belongs to 'B', perhaps without indicating the name of 'A' on the label. The label may simply say: produced for enterprise 'B'. I think all big chains have their proprietary products manufactured this way. (Auchan, Cora, Spar, CBA, etc.)
