Hacendado Menta Poleo infusion

Hacendado is the prominent private label brand of Mercadona, Spain's leading supermarket chain. This specific product, Menta Poleo (Peppermint and Pennyroyal) infusion, is part of a wide range of herbal teas developed to offer high quality at competitive prices. The brand Hacendado was launched in the mid-1990s as part of Mercadona's 'Always Low Prices' strategy.

The product is manufactured in Spain, specifically by the company Martínez y Cantó, S.L., located in Novelda, Alicante. Founded in 1970, Martínez y Cantó is one of the largest specialists in automated tea packaging in Europe and serves as an 'inter-supplier' for Mercadona, producing the vast majority of their private-label infusions.

Mercadona remains a family-owned Spanish company, with Juan Roig serving as the Chairman and majority shareholder. The company's headquarters are located in Tavernes Blanques, Valencia. As of 2026, it continues to dominate the Spanish retail market and expand its presence in Portugal.
