Alvalle

Alvalle is a Spanish chilled vegetable-soup brand best known for gazpacho, the cold Spanish soup traditionally made with vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. Founded in 1991, the brand developed around packaging a traditional Spanish food for convenient retail purchase and at-home consumption. Its products are generally associated with chilled storage, ready-to-eat use and vegetable-based ingredients. Alvalle later became part of PepsiCo, while continuing to focus on chilled soups and related vegetable-soup products. Publicly available information is limited, so this entry does not expand on an unverified founder, headquarters location or full market footprint.
