Goya Foods Great Lakes Revenue and Competitors

Goya Foods, Inc., was founded in 1936 by Spanish immigrants Prudencio and Carolina Unanue, who began by importing authentic Spanish products, such as olives, olive oil and sardines, and selling them to New York's growing Hispanic population. More than 60 years later, Goya Foods, Inc., has become America's premiere purveyor of rice, beans, seasonings, nectars and authentic Latin specialties. Goya products are distributed from coast to coast and beyond, to customers from all backgrounds who seek great-tasting and quality food products. Goya Foods, Inc., was founded on the importance of mealtime - the most important time for bringing together family and friends. And as the tastes and mealtime traditions have changed with today's busy families, Goya has kept pace. Goya offers unsurpassed variety - more than 1,000 different products, including 23 different rice products and 30 different types of beans and peas - and an unbeatable assortment of innovative, delicious, easy-to-prepare and convenient products that help busy families meet their mealtime needs. The Goya Foods, Inc. Collection, featuring classic Goya advertising, product labels and other memorabilia dating back to the company's founding in 1936, has been archived at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History as part of its permanent collection. Goya is proud to be the first Hispanic-owned business to receive this honor.
