Santa Maria is a leading Nordic brand specializing in spices, seasonings, and Tex-Mex products. The brand's journey began in 1911 as a small spice shop named Nordfalks in Gothenburg, Sweden. Over several decades, it transformed from a local merchant into an international culinary name, eventually rebranding to Santa Maria in 2001.

Today, Santa Maria is a key part of the Paulig Group, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company that acquired the brand in the early 2000s. While originating in Sweden, manufacturing is now spread across specialized facilities in Sweden (such as Mölndal), Estonia, and the United Kingdom to serve its global market. The raw ingredients for their spices are sourced globally to ensure authentic flavor profiles before being processed and packaged in their European facilities.
