ABOUT US

FROM PAPRIKA TO A COMPLETE REVOLUTION

COATO is not a typical company; we are a community created to offer what is truly needed: healthy nutrition through sustainable products and processes. Our agricultural cooperative is located in an area with a deep agricultural tradition, Totana (Murcia), next to the Mediterranean highway in the heart of the Guadalentín Valley. It all began in 1979 with 65 producers of paprika peppers. Since then, we have been growing, just like our crops, which are now much more diverse than those initial peppers. Fresh fruits and vegetables, almonds, oil, honey, are some of the products we currently work with. Throughout this journey, we have garnered and continue to receive significant recognition for quality and sustainability, establishing ourselves as one of the most important cooperatives in the sector.
