A fresh concept in

Oliviers & Co. was founded on the question, 'Like wines from the most reputable vineyards, why can't superior olive oils be worthy of being recognized as grand cru?’ …and that’s just what we set out to do, showcase the world's best olive oil producers, exacting the most stringent of quality controls resulting in the most delicious pleasures to the palate.

 

ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS OLIVE OIL

oliviers & co started out when a group of photographers began
traveling throughout the Mediterranean in search of the
olive growing world. As they tasted their way through the
region, meeting friendly, dedicated people and an
incredible diversity of flavors... their inspiration manifested
into the concept 'like wines, olive oil could be tasted and
worthy of recognition just as grand crus.’

 

 

OLIVIERS & CO. WAS FOUNDED

oliviers & co. was founded in Mane, Alpes de Haute
Provence to share the tastes of the Mediterranean.
The first orders by phone were initially of just select
olive oils discovered during Oliviers & Co’s maiden voyage
throughout the Mediterranean.
