INTERPORC receives the Spanish Food Award 2025 for giving voice to the generational change
This recognition represents a milestone for the entire Spanish white pig sector, which brings together thousands of professionals around a common goal: producing quality food under the highest standards of sustainability, animal welfare, food safety, and commitment to the rural environment.
Premiering in late 2024, "The Year of the Relief" brings a close and moving look at one of the most important moments in farming: the generational change on pig farms. Through real-life accounts, the film reflects the feelings of fathers and mothers who pass on to their children not only a profession, but also a legacy of hard work, responsibility, and love for the land.
The young protagonists are taking up that mantle and transforming it into a commitment to innovation and sustainability, keeping the pulse of the rural environment alive and ensuring the future of a key activity for society.
Beyond institutional recognition, this award is a tribute to the farming families who, generation after generation, have made pork a driving force of life, employment, and future for our people. It confirms that behind every product are people who work silently with effort and dedication, building a strong and committed sector.
INTERPORC's general manager, Alberto Herranz, expressed his deep gratitude: "This award is the fruit of the collective effort of a sector that believes in the future, that defends the rural environment, and that works passionately to offer the best to society. Behind every piece of pork, there are families that deserve to be recognized and valued, because they are the ones who make the excellence of Spanish pork possible".
Engine of the future and international projection
The “Spanish Food Award 2025” also recognizes the contribution of white pigs to the economy, employment, the retention of population in rural areas, and the international projection of the Spain brand.
"The Year of the Change" has proven to be an essential tool for bringing the reality of livestock farming closer to society, impacting both rural and urban areas and demonstrating that generational change is, at the same time, a story of family, roots, and a shared future.
