Santa Maria is a iconic brand within the European spice market, particularly dominant in the Nordic region. Originally founded in Sweden as Nordfalks, the brand transitioned to Santa Maria in 2001. It is widely known for its extensive range of spices, seasoning mixes, and Tex-Mex products.

The product is manufactured primarily at the company's production facilities in Sweden (Mölndal/Gothenburg), although global sourcing of raw ingredients like pumpkin seeds and chili is central to its supply chain. Since 2010, the brand has been under the ownership of the Finnish food group Paulig, which specializes in coffee, food, and snacks. This partnership ensures a robust distribution network across Northern Europe and the Baltics.
