Founded in 1920 by four partners, Pinhais & Cia has grown over a century, remaining faithful to a traditional method of production that guarantees the highest quality and flavor of its products.
Our differentiation comes from the selection and purchase of only the best fish, the freshness of its ingredients, the homemade (and secret) recipes perfected for generations and of course the small - but great - details that only our dedicated collaborators know when handling the product for several decades.
We can say that the real secret is in your hands!

The best Portuguese olive oil is then added to guarantee the longevity of a unique preserve that will make the sardine shine in your plate.
