Kitano Garlic and Salt Seasoning

Kitano is a well-established brand in the Brazilian market, famously known for its herbs, spices, and seasonings. The brand was originally created by the Kitano family in Brazil during the 1950s. Its heritage is deeply rooted in the food culture of Brazil, starting as a small family enterprise and growing into a national leader in the seasonings category.

In 2011, the brand underwent a significant ownership change when General Mills, a global food conglomerate headquartered in the United States, acquired Yoki Alimentos, which included the Kitano brand. Today, Kitano operates under the General Mills umbrella, benefiting from its global distribution and quality standards while maintaining its local manufacturing footprint in Brazil. The products are primarily produced in Brazilian factories to serve the domestic market.
