Sainsbury's Anchovy Fillets in Olive Oil

These anchovy fillets are a private label product from Sainsbury's, one of the United Kingdom's largest supermarket chains. The product is traditionally sourced from coastal regions known for high-quality seafood processing to maintain freshness and authentic flavour.

Typically, Sainsbury's anchovies are caught in the Atlantic (FAO area 34) and processed in Morocco, a country with a deep-rooted heritage in the preservation of oily fish. The manufacturing process involves salting, curing, and hand-packing the fillets into glass jars or tins with olive oil to preserve their rich, savory profile.

As a store brand, the brand origin is the UK, and it is owned by J Sainsbury plc. The company maintains strict quality control measures and sourcing standards for its 'by Sainsbury's' range, ensuring that the manufacturing partners meet sustainable fishing and ethical labor practices.
