Hacendado Boquerones Aliñados

Brand Origin and Overview

Hacendado is the well-known private label brand for food products operated by Mercadona, Spain's largest supermarket chain founded by Francisco Roig Ballester and substantially expanded by Juan Roig. Mercadona relies on dedicated interproveedores (specialist suppliers) to deliver supermarket staples under the Hacendado banner across Spain and Portugal.

Manufacturing and Sourcing

These seasoned white anchovies (boquerones aliñados/temperados) are distributed by Francisco Gil Comes, S.L.U., based in Vinaròs (Castellón, Spain), a major Spanish canned and semi-preserved fish specialist. The packaging notes the preparation is made in Morocco ("Producto elaborado en Marruecos") using anchovies fished in FAO fishing area 34 (Eastern Central Atlantic).

Ownership

The Hacendado brand is exclusively owned by Mercadona S.A., a privately held Spanish grocery retail giant headquartered in Tavernes Blanques (Valencia), Spain.
