Hacendado Canned Tuna in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Hacendado is the well-known private label brand belonging to the Spanish supermarket giant Mercadona. The brand was established to provide high-quality grocery staples at competitive prices within the Spanish market. This specific product, canned light tuna in extra virgin olive oil, is part of their extensive pantry range.

Mercadona sources its Hacendado tuna from several major canning partners. A significant portion of their canned fish products is manufactured by Escurís (part of the Jealsa Rianxeira group) or Frinsa del Noroeste, both headquartered in Galicia, Spain, which is a global hub for the fish canning industry. However, the raw materials are often sourced from different ocean zones (identified by FAO codes like the 'FAO 51' visible on the packaging, which corresponds to the Western Indian Ocean), and the brand utilizes multiple manufacturing locations within Spain and sometimes abroad depending on seasonal availability and demand.

As of 2026, Hacendado remains the flagship food brand of Mercadona S.A., which continues to be a family-owned Spanish conglomerate led by Juan Roig. The company operates a direct supply model, working closely with 'totaler' suppliers to maintain strict quality and sustainability standards for their private labels.
