Santa Maria Peppermix

Santa Maria is a leading Nordic brand specializing in spices, seasonings, and ethnic food concepts. Founded in Sweden in 1911 as Nordfalks, the company underwent a name change to Santa Maria in 2001 to reflect its focus on international flavors. Today, it is a dominant player in the Scandinavian and Baltic markets.

While the brand has its roots in Gothenburg, Sweden, its manufacturing operations are now part of a broader European supply chain. A significant portion of its spice processing and packaging is located in Saue, Estonia, which serves as a central hub for the brand's production. Santa Maria is currently owned by the Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company. Since joining Paulig in 2010, Santa Maria has expanded its reach as part of the group's international snacks and spice division.
