Hacendado Mantequilla Light butter

Hacendado Mantequilla Light is a spreadable dairy product sold exclusively by the Spanish supermarket chain Mercadona. This specific product is part of Mercadona's private label strategy, where the company partners with specialized manufacturers to produce high-quality goods under the Hacendado brand name. The 'Light' version is designed to be easily spreadable ('fácil de untar') and typically has a lower fat content compared to traditional butter.

The manufacturing of Hacendado dairy products is primarily handled by Spanish regional partners. While several companies produce different dairy items for the brand, the production of butter for Mercadona has historically been associated with established Spanish dairy groups such as Iparlat or Central Lechera Asturiana, depending on the specific region and format. The brand Hacendado itself was launched in 1996 and has since become one of the most recognized and consumed food brands in Spain, known for its focus on providing competitive prices by eliminating the marketing costs associated with traditional national brands.
