Hacendado dried pitted dates

Hacendado is the private label brand of Mercadona, a prominent Spanish supermarket chain. These pitted dates are part of their dried fruit line, localized for both Spanish and Portuguese markets as indicated by the dual labeling ('Sin Hueso / Sem Caroço').

As a private label product, the manufacturing or packing of Hacendado dates is handled by specialized suppliers. For this specific category, Mercadona often works with experts like Importaco or Calconut. The dates themselves are typically sourced from major producing regions like Tunisia, Algeria, or Israel, depending on the season and harvest quality, making the manufacturing origin variable across multiple countries. Mercadona maintains the ultimate ownership and distribution of the brand from its headquarters in Valencia, Spain.
