Guissona is a town and municipality located in the north of the comarca (county) of Segarra, in the Province of Lleida, Catalonia, Spain. With a population of 7,774 (register office, 2025) and a rapid demographic growth (5,170 inhabitants in 2010) Guissona is the principal municipality in the northern half of Segarra and the second most populated in the county after Cervera (9,603). In addition to the populated place of Guissona, the municipality integrates the smaller place of Guarda-si-venes (31 inhabitants in 2007). The municipality is split into two parts, the bigger eastern part containing almost all the population.
In the last half century, the town has experienced an important economic development mainly due to meat production and the creation of a meat packing industry. Such development has run parallel to a fast demographic growth, from 3,060 inhabitants in 1998 to 6,145 in 2010. As a consequence, the municipality accounts for the highest percentage of immigrant population registered in the whole province.
