Great food by great people.

Santa Rosa Team

Lots of love and a traditional recipe have made the best tortilla in British Columbia

Tortillas are the type of food that connects Mexicans to both our indigenous past and ancestral homeland. They are a symbol of pride and respect since tortillas are the base for many of our products.

This connection is now serving Canada with our products proudly made locally.

About our Founder

Don Carlos — FOUNDER

Carlos Hernández was born in Mexico City. He is a Chartered Accountant by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He completed a degree in Corporate Finances by La Salle University and a Masters in Business by Universidad Panamericana, IPADE Business School.
In Mexico, he worked for the auto parts industry for more than 25 years, as the Head Treasurer of the leading suspension and brake systems manufacturer. His private ventures include Autotecnica Boutique and NAHI Manufacturas, both serving the automotive industry.
His connection with tortillas and the food industry roots back to his teenage years, when he was 12 years old, and landed a job as a helper at El Diamante de Puerto Manzanillo, a corn flour mill and tortilla shop in Casas Aleman, Mexico City.

In 2008, he made Vancouver his new home along with his wife, Rosa Elena, and their three daughters, Rosy, Andrea, and Susana. They founded Santa Rosa, corn and wheat tortilla factory in Port Coquitlam, the largest manufacturer of tortillas in British Columbia in 2009.

Sixteen years after, Santa Rosa is the leader in this industry, with a selected list of clients and together they have scored the thriving Mexican food industry in British Columbia and Alberta, proudly starting the boom of the Mexican food-at-home local experience.

Because everything is about our awesome team!

Our dedication to continuous improvement, high quality standards, health and safety, customer satisfaction and attention to detail are the cornerstones that have made us a leader in tortilla manufacturing for over 16 years.

We take incredible pride in our team and we look forward to serving our customers every single day. Santa Rosa is ready to serve you.
