LA VEGA DEL MAR MENOR, S.L.

Company dedicated to the artisan production of all kinds of fruits and vegetables to offer a wide selection of preserves and jams.

The idea of setting up this company came up in my family in the year 2000.
we started to realise that almost everything that our friends ate came from other countries and that brozen and prefabricated food was seizing their pantries and fridges.
Fortunately, it was different in our house. The kitchen has always been an attractive place and we ate home made dishes cooked with ingredients coming from our own orchard. My mother baked delicious peppers that almost did not arrived from the oven to the table. They were real delicacies and we thought that since we could eat like that, we could also provide people with the same possibility to eat something so delicious and, above all, homemade.
It was then that we had the idea of making eleborated tinned food as it has always been, using natural products of our region.

Even when we where children, we had already learnt how to make all types of tinned food. Our grandmother María who ran El Empalme Restaurante in El Emplame of Archena (Murcia), used to go to the town factory to make canned fruit, olive and tomato so as to be able to offer her customers and family the best food.
Together with her recipes and our mother's we have elaborated a catalogue of tinned food and marmalades based on products from this region, preserving in this way the familiar traditon and sharing it with others.
Currently more than 60% of our production in P. Listo comes from our grandfather's orchard and our own fields of fruit trees and vegetables, bathed by the sun that fills with colour every pepper or date and enriches our cauliflowers and oranges.
Thanks to our hard work in each one of our canned food and marmalades we have been able to grow in these few years. Also has our variety inspired by our creativity and the increasing demand of products that make our mouths enjoy in a natural and healthy way.
For all these reasons we want to thank you everyone who has acknowledged the excitement of this family to take their traditional recipes beyond their own table.
Thank you.
