The parent company, the Grupo SOS, is the national leader in the so-called dried food sector, and the second largest Spanish group in the food sector. The brand has a wide and varied product range, all with a common denominator: SOS quality.

“Si es SOS, es bueno” (If it’s SOS, it’s good) has been the slogan used throughout its first century of life.

Deeply ingrained within the Mediterranean diet, rice presents the most common way to adding cereals to our diet.

New market trends and today’s pace of life have led to the development of new SOS rice products – options that make the preparation of dishes easier and new ideas that break away from the traditional cuisine.

In the mid-90s SOS embarked upon international expansion, firstly in the newly emerging Eastern countries and later in the Maghreb and the Middle East.

Once the exports were consolidated, the company commenced industrial expansion overseas. Since 1996 onwards, SOS boasts paddy fields in French Guyana, a strategic positioning that allows it to serve the Caribbean. In 1997 SOS acquired Arrocera del Trópico in Mexico.

This was the initial step towards its international expansion, With its own productions plants and warehouses across seven countries, apart from commercial offices in a further eleven.

Today with 14 production plants in Spain, two in the USA, Portugal and Mexico, and single plants in Italy, Guyana and Tunisia, SOS products are marketed in over 100 countries.
