“In 2021, we reinvented the ‘Continente Seleção’ brand, reviewed the products and their image and are now on a consolidation and growth path. Being awarded distinctions such as the ‘Flavour of the Year 2023’ is a recognition of this work in which we are committed to presenting customers with the best of Portugal and the World on their tables", says Tânia Lucas, Private Label Commercial Director at MC.
Originating in France, this ‘Flavour of the Year’ recognition is an award presented in the food sector, which distinguishes products of exceptional quality and taste, in order to simplify the moment of purchase for the consumer.
