Santa Maria Chili Red Hot Flakes

Santa Maria is a leading brand in the Nordic region for spices, Tex-Mex, and Asian food concepts. Originally founded in Sweden as Nordfalks in 1911, the brand evolved from a small spice shop in Gothenburg into a major international food company.

Today, Santa Maria is owned by the Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company. Most of Santa Maria's spice production, including their chili flakes, takes place at their large-scale, modern production facility in Saue, Estonia, which serves as the primary hub for the brand's global distribution. The ultimate ownership remains with Paulig, headquartered in Helsinki, Finland.
