Agromar

More than 50 years of complete dedication With more than 50 years of experience, Agromar continues to offer the finest quality in preserved and prepared products. The company’s history dates back to 1948, when Gijón native Armando Barrio Mata had the original idea of canning sea urchin roe, then very abundant on the rocky shores and beaches of Asturias. Initially intended for family consumption and used as a gift, this unique product soon revealed commercial possibilities that Armando was able to recognize and develop. In those years, many small artisanal canneries were scattered along the Cantabrian coast, like the one his father ran back in 1920. Armando himself produced and marketed salted fish, perhaps the most artisanal of all preserved seafood. It was he who finally registered the brand in 1968 and, 21 years later, brought about the birth of what we now know as CONSERVAS AGROMAR, a young and innovative limited company.   A leading company in constant evolution New times, new ideas, and new needs have driven Agromar’s constant growth in recent years, both in sales and in its range of products and production capacity, taking on new challenges and enthusiastically approaching highly competitive international markets. The success of Agromar products and their clear positioning in the “gourmet” segment have made their preserves present today in the finest restaurants and delicatessen shops in Spain, France, Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom, Mexico, the USA, and Hong Kong. This is undoubtedly the best reward for many years of work and an incentive to continue working with dedication and care. Naturally, it was only fitting for us to offer them at Made in Spain Gourmet. What better place for them to be promoted as representatives of the very best of our gastronomy.
