\"Sopas<\/p>\n

Sopas Graciete was the first company to offer ready-to-eat refrigerated soups in Portugal. At some point, they needed to expand their business geographically while ensuring freshness and upholding the authenticity of their beloved recipes without using additives or preservatives. High Pressure Processing (HPP) appeared as the only solution to extend the shelf life and maintain the homemade taste and quality of their soups.\u00a0 This blog post explores how they currently leverage HPP technology since its adoption in 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Pioneer Company in the Soup Market<\/h2>\n

Sopas Graciete<\/a>, a family-owned business founded in 2004, has become synonymous with innovation and tradition. The company proudly maintains its deep roots in Evora, Portugal where its founders began their entrepreneurial journey by opening a modest soup restaurant. Under the visionary leadership of Vasco Vieira, the managing partner and one of the founders, Sopas Graciete became the first company to offer ready-to-eat refrigerated soups in Portugal<\/strong>.\u00a0More recently, the company embraced High Pressure Processing (HPP) technology<\/a>, propelling its market expansion to new heights thanks to the extended shelf life achieved.<\/p>\n

A clear indication of the company\u2019s dedication to its heritage and principles is that it has its own farms where they cultivate part of the vegetables and greens used to prepare their soups.<\/p>\n
