La Española Meats was founded in 1982 by Juana Gimeno Faraone, it started as a small family business dedicated to importing Spanish products. We have been importing Spanish products since 1983 thanks to our founder Doña Juana, who, not being able to find these products here in the US, decided to create her own company to bring them and also make Spanish-style sausages here with her own brand called Doña Juana and In this way, we can bring to the Spanish community living in the United States a little piece of their homeland.
