Santa Maria Franska Örter (French Herbs)

Santa Maria Franska Örter is a classic herb blend inspired by French cuisine, commonly featuring ingredients like rosemary, thyme, and marjoram. The brand traces its roots back to Gothenburg, Sweden, where it began as a specialized spice shop in the early 20th century. Over decades, it evolved from Nordfalks into the renowned Santa Maria brand, becoming a leader in the Nordic spice and seasoning market.

Today, Santa Maria is owned by the Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned international food and beverage company. The manufacturing of their spice products is largely centralized in Mölndal, Sweden, ensuring quality control and adherence to European food standards. As part of Paulig’s portfolio, the brand focuses on sustainability and premium seasoning solutions across Europe.
