Introduction
At Medronho & Canela we are passionate about food! And our passion for medronho, this wonderful and incredible red fruit from the Mediterranean basin, stimulates our creativity every day so that we can develop more and better foods with the raw materials we extract from this fruit, which is rich in antioxidants, fiber, minerals, vitamins and many trace elements.
Medronho Bread, which we have been selling since 2020, was the product that led us to develop knowledge and food technology for processing the fruit, triggering a journey of no return in the optimization of processes and methodologies that allow us today to be at the forefront of innovation with products derived from medronho.
The path we have traveled since 2010, when we began our first research and development work, has brought us knowledge, experience and a good dose of daring to continue innovating.
The research and development work we carry out at the company is the result of collaborative partnerships with academic institutions, skills and knowledge transfer centers, but above all, with partners in the business and industrial sector, with whom we have close technological development and marketing relationships.
This colaborative work, in pair with participation at nacional and internacional markets, marking constant presences at technologic events in the food area, searching and investigating new solutions to incorporate in our processes, has been some of the developed strategies with the objective of maintaining a innovation performance aligned with the main market trends and food sustentability.
The products we develop at Medronho & Canela are aligned with the main objectives of the UN agenda in terms of sustainability and food footprint. We work exclusively with certified organic or fully ecological medronho, from small farms and small producers. All the components of the fruit are properly processed in order to preserve their bioactive compounds through researched and constantly optimized processes. We have managed to extract 5 different raw materials from the fruit and all of them are used and integrated into different food matrices.
