Gourmet Shop

The Semon gourmet shop in Barcelona has its beginnings in the local store, La Selecta, the meat shop owned by María Vidal‘s family. Although the actual delicatessen shop has nothing to do with this 60s store, it’s undeniable their relationship.The proximity with the clients, the high-quality products… are characteristics of both businesses. Moreover, without Maria’s experience in their family store, Semon would have never become what is today.

One of the main Semon values is to embrace traditions, the past… However, we live the present with our mind in the future, to keep offering the best products.

Semon, the Gourmet Shop of Barcelona

Semon is considered as one of the best gourmet shops in Barcelona. There, our clients can find the best selection of delicatessen products, both international and local. For example, a wide range of tinned food from the vegetable patch of Navarra and Tudela. Also, from the north of Spain, specifically from Cantabric Sea, we receive seafood and tuna, between other amazing fishes. But Semon also travels to the Middle East, so our clients can enjoy the most excellent fresh caviar with a superior quality, at the best market price.

Between the selection in the gourmet shop, there’s also space for spices and condiments: salt flower, wine and balsamic vinegars or exceptional olive oils from every region of Spain. They bring the dishes to another level, giving both traditional savors and totally innovative ones.

A gourmet shop with specialist butchers

Origins define us. At Semon we have always wager for lactic and pork butchers, because they are part of the Mediterranean diet: a healthy and rich one. That’s why, th gourmet shop has a wide selection of cheeses, produced in different European countries. In each of them there are different producers that have been working with Semon for years, always looking after quality instead of quantity. That’s why they offer their amazing cheese at its best moment.

Pork butchers has always been part of our society, of our traditions. Therefore, it has a special place in this Gourmet shop in Barcelona.
