Why our Olive leaf? In a word, relationship. We believe in “No pass, no play.” That’s why employees from our Quality Assurance and Purchasing teams audited our Spanish partners and their production facility in person when we became their first customer in the western hemisphere. Our team saw everything and met everyone, and building partnerships of trust and commitment like this have kept our relationship going strong for more than eight years.
In another word, sustainability. Olive trees take at least 65 years to mature. So it’s absolutely critical that we and our supplier reaffirm our commitment to sustainability. We will only offer you the best olive leaf material…from healthy, mature Mediterranean trees. And that material is controlled from the groves, to vendor testing labs, to our facility and finally to you. We have complete traceability.
