Goya White Hominy

Goya White Hominy is a staple product in Latin American cuisine, consisting of dried maize kernels that have been treated with an alkali in a process called nixtamalization. This process gives the corn its unique texture and flavor, making it a key ingredient for traditional dishes such as Pozole.

Originally founded in New York by Spanish immigrants, Goya Foods has grown to become the largest Hispanic-owned food company in the United States. The brand serves as a bridge between Latin American culinary traditions and the global market, sourcing its ingredients and manufacturing its products across a vast network of facilities in the United States, Spain, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic.

Today, Goya Foods remains a privately held family enterprise. The company is owned and operated by the Unanue family, ensuring that its original heritage and mission to provide authentic Caribbean and Latin American flavors remain central to its business strategy and global distribution efforts.
