Santa Maria is a well-known culinary brand that originated in Sweden. Originally founded as a spice shop in Gothenburg in 1911 by C.H. Nordlund, the company was later named Nordfalks before becoming Santa Maria AB. It has grown to become a market leader in the Nordic region for spices, Tex-Mex, and barbecue products.

Today, Santa Maria is part of Paulig, a Finnish family-owned food and beverage company founded in 1876. While the brand remains deeply rooted in its Swedish heritage, much of its large-scale production, including many of its sauces and spice blends, is handled at state-of-the-art facilities in Saue, Estonia, to serve the international market. Paulig Group, headquartered in Helsinki, continues to oversee the brand's expansion and commitment to sustainable culinary experiences.
