EEN Offer - Organic Olive Oil
An Italian organic farm offers its organic extra virgin olive oil under distribution services agreements in specific European countries.
The company carries out all the production process phases, from the harvest to the packaging, processing local varieties of olives grown at their own plantings. It is a JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standard) and COR (Canada Organic) certified firm.
This Italian farm sits in the Jonic hills, in Calabria region, South Italy, and lies 100 metres above the sea level. Its mild climate and geographic position are particularly favorable for the olives cultivation. Regarding the botanical species, the company cultivates trees of different specialties: "Carolea", "Nocellara" and "Frantoio". It is a family run company and all the phases of the production process are carried out by the company.
The extra virgin olive oil offered by the company comes exclusively from the cold pressing of the olives produced in their own farm. The olives are hand picked during the period of low maturity so as to preserve the higher quantity of aromas and natural antioxidants. The olives are then pressed in the company's mill within next six our after the harvest. This very short time interval allows fruits to preserve their own freshness and integrity. The result is an oil with a low level of acidity. Immediately after the production, the oil is preserved in special rooms at controlled temperatures in stainless steel containers which protect it from the light and air action. The final products is bottled directly in the company facilities after a brief period necessary for its natural decantation. The final product is available in glass bottles of 0.75, 0.5, 0.25 and 0.1 litters as well in 3 and 5 liter tin containers.
The company sells its products principally in the domestic market but it also exports to Japan and Canada. It is willing to access the markets of other European countries, in particular Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, France, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland, so it is looking for trade intermediaries in order to access the market of these countries, under distribution services agreements.
