Compal nectar and juice

Compal is a landmark Portuguese brand known for its high-quality fruit juices and nectars. Founded in 1952 in Entroncamento, the company initially focused on tomato paste and canned vegetables before expanding into the fruit beverage market, where it became a household name. Its reputation is built on the 'natural' appeal of its products, often emphasizing the proximity to farm-grown fruit and traditional processing methods.

Today, Compal is manufactured primarily in Portugal, with its main production facility located in Almeirim. The brand is a core part of the Sumol+Compal group, which was formed through the merger of two major Portuguese beverage players. This ownership ensures that the brand remains a dominant force in the Iberian market while exporting to dozens of countries across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

Ownership lies with Sumol+Compal S.A., which is headquartered in Carnaxide, Portugal. The company is controlled by the Refrige Group (owned by the E. Pinto Basto family), maintaining the brand's strong Portuguese heritage. Compal continues to innovate within the beverage category, offering various lines including 'Clássico', '100% Fruit', and 'Vital'.
