Founded in 1950 and operating continuously for over 70 years, the company positions itself as a specialist in grapefruit distribution, offering multiple brands with stated attention to color, flavor, and texture.

The business is structured as a Sociedad Limitada Unipersonal (S.L.U.), a single-member private limited liability company under Spanish law, with no disclosed external institutional investors, parent company, or public listing. Operational scale is modest, with a headcount in the 11-50 range and a single headquarters at Avenida de l'Estatut, 5 in Miramar. The company emphasizes a self-supply (autoabastecimiento) capability and eco-friendly packaging under a dedicated sustainability section, and operates a corporate website plus a Facebook presence used primarily for recipe content and community engagement. No mobile application, public API, proprietary technology platform, certifications, patents, or management team disclosures are present in the source data.

The revenue model is wholesale B2B distribution with no publicly disclosed pricing, contract structures, or revenue figures. The company maintains no disclosed customer logos or named accounts, and no certifications, regulatory actions, M&A, restructuring, or leadership changes are documented. Strategic activity is limited to incremental international marketing outreach (France), sustainability/eco-packaging positioning, and the sports sponsorship initiative, with no funding rounds, acquisitions, or product launches of material scale disclosed.
