One thing many expats have struggled with here is access to the international cooking ingredients that were readily available to them back home. Being able to nip in to our local supermarket and quickly grab the ingredients needed to make our favourite foods from home and abroad was quite a natural activity for many of us.

Supermarkets here in Spain are fantastic in their own right, but they often don’t carry the international products that many of us are used to. Many expats crave certain comfort foods from home, and many others love to cook worldwide cuisines in their own kitchens, but finding the right ingredients locally to do either can be a bit of a challenge.

Well here at the San Pedro Guide we are pleased to announce that those days are now in the past, thanks to Leo Foods. Based just a short hop from San Pedro, in the Nueva Campana Industrial Estate, Leo Foods is a shop and warehouse stocked with a vast array of frozen, chilled, and ambient products from middle Eastern, British, Indian, Mediterranean, and Latin American cuisines; as well as a full range of organic, healthy, and superfoods to cook up your favourite dishes from ALL your favourite cuisines. And just as exciting as their impressive stock are their competitive prices.

Leo Foods Marbella

Leo Foods was established in 1987 and very quickly became the coast’s leading retailer and wholesaler of international food and drink products. Their wholesale division caters to hotels, sports clubs, restaurants, cafés, bars, beach clubs, supermarkets and retail outlets; but their 2050+ product list is now also available to the general public. Open between 9am and 5pm, residents and holidaymakers alike can pop in to find and purchase all their favourite products that are often hard to find – at discounted prices.

Healthy Foods

In addition to hard-to-find international ingredients, Leo Foods knows that healthy eating isn’t a fad or fashion trend and has embraced an extensive and ever-expanding list of healthy, specialty-diet, organic and superfoods at prices lower than what you’ll find at a supermarket or health food store. They stock an extraordinary range of medicinal teas, an incredible assortment of purees, pulps, smoothies and add-ins, an extensive range of dairy-free, sugar-free, and gluten-free products, and a great assortment of organic staples, natural sweeteners, nut butters, and superfoods without having to buy anything in bulk.

If you’re a bit of a foodie in any way, a visit their shop is a must. You’ll find everything you need for all your favourite dishes from around the world, and probably discover some new flavours too. And if you’re looking for something so specific that Leo Foods doesn’t have it on hand (yet), they’ll even do their best to source it for you.

Leo Foods – highly recommended!
