Located in the heart of the Alt Penedès region, the Olèrdola workshop is much more than a kitchen: it's the laboratory where a significant part of Almendro Origen's culinary offerings take shape. Since 2006, this 4,000 m² space has been producing tortillas, soups, creams, gazpachos, broths, and a wide variety of prepared dishes that arrive daily at establishments throughout Catalonia, with the same love and care as if they were made at home. Six years later, in 2012, the company opened a dairy section to complete its product range and strengthen control over the entire process, from fresh produce to the final dish. In the last year alone, the workshop has produced more than 5 million creams, gazpachos, and broths; more than 13.3 million dairy products; more than 1 million tortillas; and more than 1.8 million prepared dishes. A production that reflects not only the team's skill, but also the dedication and passion we put into every recipe.

The first agreements are being discussed Last Christmas Wham! and the nearly 1,000 attendees occupy the 90 tables that fill the main hall of the Museu Marítim de Barcelona. Just a few minutes later, the light dims and illuminated dancers stroll among the tables while a choir sings thePirates' Anthem from the musical Sea and skyWith this melody so fitting for the setting, the 4th Almendro Origen Charity Christmas Dinner began with a clear objective: to raise funds for a charitable cause. This year, the organization raised €80,500 for the Sant Joan de Déu Hospital, specifically for the SJD Pediatric Cancer Center Barcelona project. The dinner centered around a story that connects the hospital with the Catalan food chain. The protagonist is Aina, daughter of an Almendro Origen employee, who was diagnosed with cancer at age 14. Both she and her family are familiar with the work carried out by the professionals at Sant Joan de Déu Hospital, and although the SJD Pediatric Cancer Center Barcelona wasn't yet a reality when she was diagnosed, she recognizes the center as a valuable resource for children currently battling the disease.
