Risenta Chiafrön chia seeds

Risenta is a long-standing Swedish brand specializing in healthy, plant-based foods such as seeds, nuts, flour, and muesli. Founded in 1940 by a young entrepreneur during World War II shortages, the brand originally focused on importing rice to Sweden and later expanded globally to source naturally powerful raw materials.

Starting from June 1, 2026, the brand is owned by Midsona AB, a leading Nordic company within health and well-being. Midsona acquired Risenta from the Finnish food group Paulig, which had owned the brand since 2015. While the brand is of Swedish origin and headquarted there, the raw material for this specific product, chia seeds (Salvia hispanica), is typically sourced from Argentina or other South American countries like Bolivia and Paraguay, where conditions are ideal for cultivation. The product packaging highlights its climate-compensated nature and high nutritional value, including rich concentrations of omega-3, fiber, and protein.
