The small spice industries born in the early 1900<\/strong> gradually became the economic livelihood of many families in this town.<\/p>\n

When Luis Penalva<\/strong> started, the work was manual, packaging the saffron in small \u201ccarteritas\u201d (pouches) in a very traditional and artisanal way<\/strong>. Business was national and mainly local.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
