The premier source for authentic Latino cuisine, Goya Foods is the largest, Hispanic-owned food company in the United States. Founded in 1936 by Don Prudencio Unanue and his wife Carolina, both from Spain, the Goya story is as much about the importance of family as it is about achieving the American dream.

The patriarch, Prudencio Unanue Ortiz, migrated from Spain in the 20th century and established Goya Foods, the largest Hispanic-owned food company in the United States. The family's members include Joseph A. Unanue and Andy Unanue. Goya Foods is the 377th largest private American company.

(Edit: The family is actually “Unanue”, the company is just called Goya. The answer is still the same, they are Puerto Rican/Spanish American, and the company was founded by Spaniards who moved to Puerto Rico.)

It is owned privately by descendants of the founders and is not a public company. Goya was founded in 1936, by Prudencio Unanue Ortiz (1886–1976) from Valle de Mena, Spain. Unanue emigrated to Puerto Rico, where he met and married Carolina Casal (1890–1984) also a Spanish immigrant.

Goya Foods has around 4,000 employees and brings in an estimated annual revenue of $1.5 billion. CEO Robert Unanue has been in the role since 2004, but he first started working for Goya Foods 43 years earlier as a child, helping out the family business.
