La Costeña canned goods

La Costeña is a leading Mexican food brand with a heritage dating back to 1923, founded by Vicente López Resines. It began as a small grocery store called 'La Costeña' in Tlatelolco, Mexico City, where the founder started by preserving serrano peppers and tomatoes in vinegar to extend their shelf life. Today, the brand has become a global household name, recognized for its glass-packed and canned agricultural products.

The company operates several state-of-the-art manufacturing plants across Mexico (including Ecatepec and Sinaloa) and has expanded its production footprint to internationally located facilities in the United States and Chile to meet global demand. La Costeña remains a family-owned enterprise, maintaining its independence from large global conglomerates, which has allowed it to preserve its traditional Mexican culinary roots while adopting modern preservation technologies.
