The Bodega La Andaluza Franchise is a business concept based on domestic products of high quality, which is notable for its wine list and genuine Andalusian cuisine. It is an attractive business for all types of consumers, both domestic and foreign, because it offers the authentic flavour of the andalusian cuisine and a real traditional image that evokes the culture of southern Spain. Thus, it gets customers to feel in a traditional establishment of the nineteenth century, but with the comforts and advances of the twenty-first century.
This Andalusian company started its activity in 1987, with the opening of the first establishment in Seville, based on the popular traditional cuisine. At first it was named "Bodega La Pitarra". Thanks to his great success, the business expanded to other parts of the city.
In the year 2002, due to continuous proposals to set up this business at other locations, it started its expansion under the franchise system and became Bodega La Andaluza.
