Hacendado Balsamic Vinegar of Modena

Hacendado Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is a private-label product specifically created for the Spanish supermarket giant Mercadona. The product carries the 'Vinagre Balsámico de Módena' protected designation, indicating the primary ingredients originate from the Modena region in Italy. This specific bottle is produced and packaged for Mercadona by J.R. Sabater S.A., a Spanish company established in 1976 that specializes in the production of vinegars and creams. While the vinegar base adheres to Italian standards, the final processing and distribution are managed within Spain to serve the Iberian market.

Mercadona, founded in 1977 by the Roig family, remains a privately owned Spanish company and has become the country's leading grocery retailer. The Hacendado brand is their flagship food label, known for partnering with high-quality local manufacturers to produce specialized goods at competitive prices. This integration ensures that the product maintains its traditional Italian heritage while benefiting from Spanish logistical and manufacturing expertise.
