Is there anything new in canned fish? Of course there is!

Portugal has a long tradition of producing canned fish. This industry dates back to 1853 and today plays an important role in the country's history and culture.

Initially created to feed armies, canned fish has long since ceased to be just emergency food for the pantry or traditional camping food. Today, it is part of the diet of many Portuguese families.

It is currently a sector that employs thousands of people in our country and is heavily invested in modernisation and winning over a more demanding public.

This constant search for innovation has resulted in some surprising and unique preserves, so versatile that they are practically a complete meal.

We recently added Minerva's latest innovation to our shop: tuna salads, prepared with top-quality tuna. The ingredients are chosen to recreate recipes enjoyed around the world and are available in Portuguese, Tuscan, Mexican or Couscous versions. Practical, balanced and delicious, Minerva salads are ready to eat at any time!

If you're not convinced, take a look at our suggestions for today. You'll find canned fish with chickpeas, pickles, seaweed... and much more! You're sure to find something to suit your taste, with the guaranteed quality of Portuguese canned foods.
