Description
Rico Flamengo Half Wheel brings one of Lactimaf’s most recognised Portuguese cheeses into a practical format designed for modern international food distribution.
Produced in Northern Portugal by Lactimaf, a family cheesemaker established in 1934, Rico Flamengo follows the traditional recipe that has defined the company’s cheesemaking heritage for generations. With more than 90 years of experience behind every product, Lactimaf combines Portuguese dairy tradition with the consistency required by professional buyers.
The half-wheel vacuum-packed format provides an ideal balance between authenticity and practicality. It allows distributors, restaurants, hotels and specialty retailers to work with a traditional Portuguese cheese while reducing handling complexity compared with a complete wheel.
This format is particularly suitable for first import orders, mixed-product programmes and professional buyers looking to introduce Portuguese cheese with lower inventory commitment. The vacuum packaging supports product protection, easier storage and efficient distribution throughout the supply chain.
Rico Flamengo offers an approachable semi-soft texture and balanced flavour profile, making it suitable for cheese counters, deli displays, restaurant menus, sandwiches, tasting selections and everyday European cheese applications.
For Japanese and Asian importers, Rico Flamengo represents an opportunity to introduce a Portuguese cheese category that remains relatively unexplored compared with more established European origins. Supported by Lactimaf’s family heritage, export capability and reliable production, it provides a distinctive addition to premium European dairy programmes.
