Quality, Safety
and Reliability

 

 

Legumbres La Asturiana meets every single food safety and quality standard in Spain – our principles and policies on food safety and environmental quality guarantee it.


Reliability is the key

Customer and consumer satisfaction come first and foremost. They’re looking for proven quality and reliability, and our responsible food safety, hygiene and environmental practices meet their needs.

Ethical labour practices are one more way we make sure we’re a responsible company. Each and every person on our team takes their contribution to product and service quality to heart. We take food safety seriously and we’re conscientious about environmental management.

Not only is Legumbres La Asturiana committed to efficiency in everything we do, we are continually implementing improvements to our food safety, quality and environmental management systems. We adopt measures to prevent product contamination and update our systems with the latest technology, continually train our staff, and enhance our food safety, environmental management and quality control methods.

Every change we make reaffirms our commitment product quality, protecting food safety and upholding conscientious environmental management. Each of our policies is spelled out in our comprehensive manual on food safety, quality and environmental management. All members of staff are duty-bound to comply with those regulations every day, and we continue fine-tuning our policies to provide the best possible service.



The way we handle our products is crucial to keeping them in prime condition, starting from the moment we receive them and throughout our warehouse. Our 8,000-square metre warehouse with multilayer insulation is perfect for keeping our legumes in top-notch condition.

The Legumbres La Asturiana warehouse is equipped to receive both pre-bagged and loose product as it arrives. Either way, we handle our products with the utmost care to prevent damage as product is transported. Their bins are fitted with electronic scales to measure product weight before it is placed in industrial food-grade “big bags.”

Meticulous quality control

Our quality control analysts take samples for product testing in strict adherence to both our clients’ contractual conditions and Spanish law. After the product protocol is carefully decided, the samples are cooked and tested. Each specimen is labelled and documented for traceability.

Furthermore, our products are positioned in the warehouse based on optimum storage standards for how they will be moved and how long they will be stored.
