Matinal Queijo Fresco

This fresh cheese product is marketed under Lactogal's premium dairy brand, Matinal. Although Lactogal Produtos Alimentares, S.A. is a major Portuguese dairy cooperative group headquartered in Porto, the packaging's health mark ('ES 15.00905/O UE') indicates that this particular fresh cheese was manufactured in Spain, specifically in Galicia, before being packaged and distributed across Portugal.

Lactogal was created in the late 1990s through the merger of leading Portuguese dairy cooperatives (Agros, Lacticoop, and Proleite) and remains the largest dairy enterprise in Portugal, owning household brand names such as Mimosa, Agros, Gresso, and Matinal.
