Discover how the Central Lechera Asturiana Group has transformed the dairy industry in Spain, combining innovation and sustainability throughout its history.
Founded in 1967, the Central Lechera Asturiana Group (Capsa) was created with a mission to transform Spain’s dairy industry. Starting with its first plant in Granda in 1969, where it introduced the revolutionary non-returnable plastic bottle, Capsa has led the way in modernizing the sector.
In 2005, the company launched the Naturlínea brand, followed in 2006 by the new Gémina packaging, which enabled expansion into the hospitality industry. Capsa’s commitment to quality didn’t go unnoticed; in 2012, it became the first Spanish food company to earn the EFQM +500 Excellence seal, underscoring its unwavering dedication to quality and innovation.
In 2014, the company launched its ESENCIA project, reinforcing its focus on natural ingredients by ensuring 98% of its products were free from unnecessary additives. This commitment culminated in 2018 with the celebration of Capsa’s 50th anniversary and the award of the Livestock Guarantee Seal, highlighting its strong ties with local producers.
Innovation continued to be at the forefront: in 2019, Capsa founded the Spanish Institute for Personalized Nutrition, focusing on improving health and well-being through precision nutrition. The following year, it acquired a 50% stake in Lácteas Flor de Burgos S.L., aiming to jointly lead the cheese and fresh products market.
Today, with €758 million in revenue, a net profit of €19 million, and over 1,000 employees, Capsa is not only a leader in the dairy industry but also a testament to how innovation and quality can coexist in harmony.
With such an impressive legacy, implementing digital business cards is a natural next step in Capsa’s evolution. These tools enhance communication and reflect the company’s commitment to sustainability and innovation.
The adoption of INNOCard digital business cards has strengthened Capsa’s brand image, simplifying networking and interaction with clients and partners. In a market where sustainability is increasingly valued, the shift to digital formats reinforces its position as a pioneer in the dairy industry. Capsa isn’t just looking to the future – it’s leading the way.
