Our Heritage
Severino Abuín, the founder of 814 Americas, was born in 1904 in Lugo, a town in Spain’s Galicia region. As a child, Severino followed the Spanish tradition of making chorizo with his family. Once he perfected the family recipe, he left home and eventually settled in America to launch the S. Abuín Packing Company – now known as 814 Americas, a division of Smithfield Packaged Meats Corp.
Today, 814 Americas continues to produce El Miño and Riojano Spanish-style chorizo and Higüeral Dominican-style meats to the same high standards set by the Abuín family.
