Thanks to accumulated experience, well-defined values (tradition, quality, work, commitment, and gratitude), and great entrepreneurial intuition, Enrique Tomás started opening his own establishments in 1987, expanding them throughout the province of Barcelona. In parallel, he created and designed the necessary corporate structure to ensure that the management of the different shops was consistent, sustainable, and profitable.
The treatment and care of the product, the realization that the best way to serve customers is to guarantee quality, and the clear perception that 'a sale does not end when the customer pays but when the customer returns' are the pillars of the Enrique Tomás brand. The flagship product of the company is high-quality ham, available in various culinary presentations and both as whole pieces and in any of the different cuts that the piece allows.
THE TRIPLE SELECTION PROCESS
Enrique Tomás is the largest ham chain in the world, and one of the key aspects that has made this possible is our strong commitment to guaranteed quality. We have assembled a team of professionals who oversee the product from the curing facility to your home. At Enrique Tomás, every product is carefully handled from the very beginning.
We partner with ham artisans and producers who share our passion. When we talk about the triple selection process, we refer to the three essential stages each ham and shoulder goes through before earning the Enrique Tomás label.
The first selection is carried out directly with the producers, the second takes place when the product arrives at our facilities, and the third and final inspection happens just before it’s shipped to you for your enjoyment.
Our History
Enrique Tomás began its activity over 40 years ago with a delicatessen stall at the La Salut market in Badalona, seeking that close, personal service and fresh atmosphere that characterize traditional markets—some of which are centuries old and give identity to their neighborhoods.
