The partnership is comprised of three friends; Colleen Huenefeld, Myleen Huenefeld and Reena F. Colleen and Myleen are two sisters who had been living in Spain for the last 40 years and recently moved back to Manila last March. In August 2011, during their last holiday in Manila, they contemplated moving back and explored the possible business opportunities they might have. Their family had always
worked in the food industry and after forty years of owning and running a Filipino restaurant in Spain (and over ten of owning and running a sushi factory) they decided to look for something to produce here, in the Philippines. Their idea of making quality Spanish chorizos was something they thought might work. Upon returning to Madrid, the Huenefeld sisters decided to learn all they could about chorizos and its variants. They worked and studied under the tutelage of their long time butcher. Thereafter, in the wake of numerous trials and errors, the two sisters learned the art of sausage making. In Manila, Myleen and Colleen were joined by their good friend, Reena, who with her local savvy is in charge of Calidad Española's Imaging, Marketing & Promotions. Reena's family has had the opportunity to live in different parts of the world, where enjoying the many flavours of various cuisines was always at the top of their travel list. Their penchant for travel and great food led the Lagdameo's to open a restaurant at one point, in order to share their love of good food with great company with family and friends alike. Now, years later, the three partners who are all long time foodies have come together to offer you the traditional flavours of Spain, right in the heart of Manila! On behalf of the CALIDAD ESPAÑOLA family, we hope you enjoy our chorizos! Visit us at the SALCEDO MARKET in Salcedo Park! ORDERS:
