Hacendado Crema de Calabaza

Hacendado Crema de Calabaza is a popular ready-to-eat pumpkin cream soup specifically produced for the Spanish supermarket giant Mercadona. The product is part of their 'Platos de Cuchara' line, designed for convenience without sacrificing the traditional Mediterranean diet's flavors.

Technically, Hacendado is the private label brand of Mercadona. The manufacturing is typically outsourced to specialized Spanish food processing companies like Interal, which operates facilities in Spain. This ensures that the product is locally sourced and processed to meet the specific quality standards of the Spanish market.

Mercadona, founded in Tavernes Blanques, Valencia, remains a family-owned Spanish company. It is one of the most successful retailers in Spain, known for its strategic relationship with 'totaler' providers who manufacture their high-quality store brands specifically for their shelves.
