The origin of Ceretani

Welcome to Ceretani.
This is the web portal of the Espuña–Costa family holding company. With the sole aim of grouping our economic activity in a web portal to give an overall sense, we want to share with you our story that has seen a business and family develop hand in hand.
The name of the company itself expresses our love for Cerdanya. Ceretani is the name given to the ancient Ceretani or Cerretani people who settled on the south face of the Pyrenees in protohistoric and ancient times. They populated the current territory of Cerdanya and spread further to the west.
You are invited to experience a history deeply rooted in the preparation of agri-food products and Cerdanya. Our history. And now yours too!
