Vinagrerías Riojanas

Vinagrerías Riojanas S.A was founded in 1956 in the city of Logroño, La Rioja, before moving 30 years later to its current 9,000 m² premises which stand on a 35,000 m² plot.

It’s expansion, based on tradition and the application of the very latest technologies, has made it Spain’s number one producer of vinegar and one of the leading such companies in Europe.

A presence in over 40 countries

Its experience dating back more than 40 years of adapting to differing markets, producing organic, halal and kosher vinegars, has ensured the company’s leading position in over 40 countries.

Vinagrerías Riojanas has been a pioneer in the development and distribution of vinegars and flavoured oils, with one of the most select and extensive product portfolios on the market. All of the foregoing is fully backed by its IFS and BRC quality certification.

We are an ally to our customers, always ready to meet their needs and consider their suggestions. Similarly, our suppliers are part of the same company, as can be seen in their outstanding loyalty over time. At Vinagrerías Riojanas we work in a flexible way, always looking to improve the service we offer and launch new products.

New technologies and innovation in our production processes

From the outset we have always been committed to computerization and research and development projects, progressing through a number of R+D phases in our production processes and the selection of specific acetic acid bacteria. A number of these projects have been undertaken in close collaboration with various prestigious universities and the European Regional Development Fund.

In terms of innovation, under the Aliño gourmet brand we have developed one of the most extensive ranges of flavours in over 40 varieties of vinegars and nine flavoured oils based on extra virgin olive oil.

Bodegas Sur de España

In 1993, Bodega Vinagres Sur de España was founded in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz to produce and age Jerez vinegar under the Jerez brand name, in accordance with the Regulating Council of the Denomination of Origin of Jerez.

It currently has over 6,000 wineskins for the aging of Jerez and Jerez Reserva vinegars using the traditional Solera and Criaderas methods.
