Minerva is one of Portugal's historic canned fish brands, established in 1942 in Matosinhos. The brand is produced and owned by A Poveira, S.A. (Conserveira A Poveira), a traditional Portuguese canning company founded in 1938 and located in Póvoa de Varzim / Laúndos, Portugal.
A Poveira was acquired by the major Portuguese agri-food conglomerate Grupo Cerealis in 2013, which later formed a joint venture with the Spanish seafood cannery group Conservas Selectas de Galicia (Conserba). In 2021, Spanish agribusiness group Grupo Empresarial Palacios (Palacios Alimentación / Carlyle-backed) or related consortiums invested into Cerealis, but A Poveira continues to operate its dedicated canning operations in Portugal.
All Minerva canned tuna and sardine products are proudly processed, packed, and manufactured in Portugal, highlighting traditional quality and local Atlantic fish processing heritage.
