Discover where a brand or product originates
This product is an aged mixed cheese (Ibérico style) made with raw milk, sold under the Hacendado brand, which is the private label for the Spanish supermarket chain Mercadona. The cheese is specifically produced by Valle de San Juan Palencia S.L., a specialized dairy company based in the province of Palencia, Spain.
Valle de San Juan was founded in 1998 by Juan Manuel Rodríguez and remains a family-owned business. It operates as a strategic 'inter-supplier' for Mercadona, producing high-quality traditional Spanish cheeses. The production facilities are located in Villarrabé and Palencia, where they process raw milk primarily sourced from the region to maintain traditional flavors and textures. While the brand seen by consumers is Hacendado, the ultimate corporate oversight and production expertise reside with the Rodríguez family through Valle de San Juan.
