Founded in 1964 by Fred Ruiz, El Monterey began with trusted family recipes and a desire to share delicious Mexican cuisine with American households. Beginning with authentic dishes like enchiladas, burritos, and tamales, they have since expanded their offerings and created innovative new products like the world's first frozen flour taquito. They continue to provide trusted and tasty offerings, as well as brand recognition that allows customers to know they are getting the best Mexican food. Rooted in excellence, the Ruiz family-owned corporation was awarded the Small Business Persons of the Year award in 1983, and continue to make positive contributions to the U.S. with their foundations, Ruiz 4 Kids, which provides students and teachers scholarships, and Ruiz Cares, a community service organization.
