Hacendado Roasted Peanuts in Shell

This product consists of roasted peanuts in their shell, sold under the Hacendado brand. Hacendado is the well-known private label for food products owned by the Spanish supermarket giant Mercadona. While the brand is Spanish and the product is distributed primarily within Spain, the labeling on this specific package explicitly indicates that the peanuts originate from China.

Mercadona, founded by the Roig family, manages its Hacendado brand by partnering with various specialist suppliers (known as 'totaler' providers). In the case of these peanuts, while they are packaged or processed for the Spanish market, the raw agricultural product is sourced internationally to meet demand and quality standards. The company maintains strict control over its supply chain to ensure products meet European food safety regulations despite their global origins.
