Santa Maria Mild Taco Sauce

Santa Maria is a leading brand in the Nordic and UK markets, specializing in ethnic food concepts, particularly Tex-Mex. Originally established in Gothenburg, Sweden, the brand has grown from a small spice shop into a major international food provider.

The product, a mild taco sauce with fine pieces, is designed to cater to the European palate for Mexican-style cuisine. While many of their dry spices and sauces were historically produced in Sweden, the company maintains high-tech production facilities across Northern Europe and the UK to support its extensive distribution network.

Today, Santa Maria is part of Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company. Paulig acquired Santa Maria in the early 21st century, integrating it into its 'World Foods & Flavoring' division, ensuring it remains a central figure in the European grocery landscape.
