mexgrocer.co.uk becomes exclusive UK stockist of El Yucateco products
mexgrocer.co.uk, a Times Top 50 Food Site and one The Independent’s 50 Best Food websites, has become the exclusive UK stockist of El Yucateco products.
El Yucateco is a leading brand of authentic Mexican hot sauces. The El Yucateco range comprises habanero based sauces including red, green, Caribbean and Kutbil-Ik as well as jalapeño and chipotle sauces. El Yucateco also produces condiments, including achiote paste, and concentrated beverages such as the Mexican drink, Horchata.
Katya Torres, CEO of mexgrocer.co.uk, said: “El Yucateco is a hugely popular brand in Mexico - its sauces and other products are loved by millions. I know British people will embrace El Yucateco products - as they have done with all the other authentic Mexican products available at mexgrocer.co.uk.”
In the last year, the British public spent more than £168 million in this sector – considerably more than the amount spent on the traditional British favorite, the curry.
mexgrocer.co.uk is an online supplier of authentic Mexican groceries and ingredients, offering products not generally available in UK and European supermarkets. Food supplied by mexgrocer.co.uk is imported from Mexico and shipped in the company’s own packaging from its warehouse just north of London. Orders are dispatched within 24 hours.
El Yucateco was founded in 1968 by Priamo J. Gamboa as a small business producing homemade habanero pepper sauces. In the years since, El Yucateco has grown into a major exporter of fiery habanero pepper sauces and other traditional Mexican products to the US, Europe, Asia and Oceania.
El Yucateco products will be available through www.mexgrocer.co.uk and the MexGrocer grocery store on Amazon.co.uk.
