Our History
Bajamar was founded in December 1966, in 1967 it started its productive activity in Navarre. Its name comes from the fact that, for a long time, in addition to preserves, it carried out an important activity as a codfish dryer, a very popular product at that time.
We produce high quality preserves. Asparagus from Navarra and piquillo peppers and bell peppers from the Ebro Valley.
Mr. Rafael Arnal Montes and son, Mr. Rafael Arnal Castillo, in 1967, when measurements were taken for the construction of the factory.
Most of our production Asparagus from Navarra, comes from our own fields, which with specially designed planting frames, and a rigorous field control, provide an IGP Navarra asparagus with the highest quality.
The peppers come from special crops for Bajamar, in the area of the Ebro Valley, and are processed with traditional techniques, roasted by fire and packaged by hand.
This enhances the great organoleptic qualities of the peppers. Being the bell pepper variety “Luesia” one of our specialties. A firm flesh pepper, bright red color, sweet and intense flavor and great aroma. The variety, the cultivation in rich lands, in the open field, during pepper’s season, together with the fire roasting process, give it a unique character.
