Cigala Agulha Rice

Cigala is one of the most iconic rice brands in Portugal, historically deeply rooted in the Portuguese food market. Originally established in Portugal, the brand has become a household name known for its high-quality varieties, particularly the 'Agulha' (needle) long-grain rice shown in the image.

The product is primarily processed and packaged in Portugal, utilizing local industrial facilities. The management of the brand is currently under the Ebro Foods group, a Spanish multinational that is a global leader in the rice sector. Ebro Foods acquired Cigala through its Portuguese subsidiary, Arrozeiras Mundiarroz, consolidating its presence in the Iberian market while maintaining the brand's local identity and production heritage.
