The seed – 1969

Thanks, Grandpa

It all began in a small local bakery, where after learning from his grandfather the secrets of making the best homemade donuts, Enrique Velarte founded Productos Velarte and our story officially began.

Growth – 1999

The perfect place to grow

It was a key year for the company, which began with the move to our new factory in Catarroja. This allowed us to increase our production capacity and introduce our eagerness to do things the right way and to continue growing.

Consolidation – Starting in 2000

Reaching our dream

We started off the new millennium by updating our logo and carrying out a technological revolution that would allow us to transform all our processes. From here, we consolidated ourselves and began to see how changes, new launches and success occur.
