Santa Maria Garlic Salt

Santa Maria is a leading Nordic seasoning brand with a history dating back to the early 20th century in Sweden. Originally starting as a small tea and spice shop in Gothenburg under the name Nordfalks, it eventually rebranded to Santa Maria in 2001 and became the dominant spice player in Northern Europe.

Today, the brand is owned by Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company. While the corporate headquarters are in Finland, the primary production and manufacturing facilities for many Santa Maria spice products remain located in Mölndal, Sweden. The brand operates globally, bringing Nordic-inspired and international flavors to kitchens across Europe and beyond.
