Hacendado Lupini Beans

Hacendado lupini beans (altramuces) are a popular Mediterranean snack produced specifically for Mercadona, Spain's leading supermarket chain. The product is manufactured by Muerza Ibérica S.L.U., a specialized food processing company located in Agoncillo (La Rioja), Spain. This manufacturing partnership reflects Mercadona's strategy of working with 'Totaler' suppliers to ensure regional quality and competitive pricing.

The brand Hacendado is a private label owned by Mercadona S.A., which was founded in 1977 by the Roig family in Valencia. Today, Mercadona remains a family-owned Spanish giant, maintaining its position as the top grocery retailer in Spain and expanding into Portugal. The production process in La Rioja adheres to traditional Spanish preservation methods for legumes, ensuring the product meets local dietary preferences.
