The authentic taste of Spain in Sweden

In Sweden, several restaurants and shops offer a selection of Spanish products and flavors. They do more than simply recreate Spanish cuisine; they capture its essence and bring an authentic Spanish culinary experience both to the table and into the home.

In this context, Foods & Wines from Spain, ICEX’s international promotion brand for Spanish food and wine products, helps showcase the quality, diversity, and authenticity of Spanish cuisine and its products around the world.

In 2020, ICEX, the Spanish government agency responsible for promoting Spanish companies internationally, launched the Restaurants from Spain quality certification. It recognizes restaurants around the world that offer an authentic, high-quality Spanish culinary experience. In 2024, Colmados from Spain quality certification was launched, for establishments specializing in the sale of Spanish products. The certification recognizes shops that offer a high-quality selection and help bring Spanish products and flavors directly to consumers.

Both certifications are a guarantee of authenticity and excellence.
In Sweden it is possible to find the following certificated restaurants and shops.
