Celebrating Heura’s Mediterranean heritage and traditions, while recognising the need to rewrite those traditions, the launch of Heura Sausage and Heura Chorizo at La Monumental represents the declaration of the intentions of a whole generation, according to the brand. 

The Power Sits with the People

Activism is at the heart of the company, with Marc Coloma, CEO of Heura Foods, recently sending messages to Spanish Prime Minister , as well as UK Prime Minister , regarding plant-based diets and climate change. 

“A cycle of injustice can be obliterated once people refuse to follow the status quo and start standing up for what they believe in,” stated co-founder and CEO Marc Coloma. 

“Society found a way to transform La Monumental from a place of barbaric animal abuse to an amazing platform for an evolved form of entertainment. As the tides shift and the plant-based protein movement continues to make animal-based meats more and more obsolete, Heura recognizes that the power sits with the people, and we ask the world to make their voices heard.”
