Whether it’s packaged, frozen or already prepared food items, the Goya brand’s commitment to excellence will win over consumers.” he enthused.

Goya’s partnership with Productos Nativos, the respected private-label distributor of Latin American foods and beverage, will triple the products offered by the Spain-based company. “Goya is very pleased to have found a company whose standing and dedication to excellence reflects our own values. Goya and Productos Nativo have in common the goal of responding to our consumers demand for variety and quality,” says Mr. Joe Perez. “Given the wonderful inter-changes of culture occurring in Spain and throughout Europe, non-Latin American consumers are also looking now, more than ever, for ways to expand their palette and lifestyles. We derive great pride in being able to offer Latin Americans in Spain and, indeed all of Europe, the authentic taste of home,” concluded Mr. Perez.
