Olive Excellence

Since 2007, we’ve partnered with our trusted Spanish agricultural partner, known for its pioneering attitude towards environmental management. Its two sites in Seville boast a range of innovative technologies designed to minimise the use of natural resources, such as water conservation equipment, photovoltaic plants and biomass boilers, which are fed by waste olive pits for a truly circular energy system.

The company combines its operations with dedicated research farms focusing on the development of new olive varieties alongside the promotion and safeguarding of biodiversity. Here, the sites are bursting with measures designed to support wildlife and nature. Nest boxes have been installed for insectivorous birds, hoopoes, owls, kestrels and bats. Insect hotels have been introduced to attract bugs such as bees and solitary wasps, which act as pollinators and help to ward off pests. Elsewhere, grasses and a mix of annual mono and dicotyledonous species have been planted to support vegetative diversity, while ponds and streams have been regenerated to create bustling ecosystems that further benefit regenerative agriculture.

It’s a groundbreaking production method and due to the swift harvest to production time and bespoke harvesting technology ensures high-quality and minimal defects from bruising while keeping the trees healthy. We also employ technologies that measure the stress level of the trees and irrigate accordingly to minimise water wastage. Each olive tree even has its own QR code, for ultimate supply chain transparency. Every batch of olives goes through an 80-point check, from farm to fork, so our customers and consumers can be confident that they’re getting a product that’s as tasty and high-quality as it is sustainable.
