Discover where a brand or product originates
The product is part of the Hacendado line, which is the flagship private label brand of the Spanish supermarket giant Mercadona. The image displays a barcode starting with '84', which is the GS1 prefix for Spain, indicating that the product is managed and primarily commercialized by a Spanish entity. However, the packaging explicitly states 'Origen: No UE' (Origin: Non-EU), meaning the raw materials or initial processing occurred outside of the European Union, though it is packed and distributed for the Spanish market.
Hacendado was created by Mercadona to offer high-quality alternatives to traditional brands. The manufacturing is typically outsourced to 'Totaler' providers—specialized companies that produce exclusively for Mercadona under strict quality controls. While Mercadona maintains ultimate ownership and strategic direction from its headquarters in Valencia, the actual physical production for products like these is often a collaboration between international growers and Spanish packaging facilities.
