Why is it better to buy olive oil from cooperatives?

1. Guaranteed quality and authentic flavor

When you buy olive oil from a cooperative, you have the guarantee that the product comes directly from the fields of local farmers who take care of every detail of the process. The oil is often made using traditional techniques such as cold pressing, which preserves all the organoleptic and nutritional properties of the product.

🔍 Did you know that…? Cooperatives work with their own olive trees or those of associated farmers, ensuring maximum traceability of the product, from the tree to the bottle.

2. Direct support to local producers

Buying olive oil and its products from cooperatives means supporting the region and the farmers who work hard to keep the olive growing tradition alive. This model fosters the local economy and helps preserve the rural landscape and agricultural culture of the area.

💡 A commitment to the future: Cooperatives not only care about the product, but also about the people behind it, ensuring that farmers receive a fair price for their work.

3. A sustainable and responsible oil

Cooperatives are usually committed to environmentally friendly agricultural practices. This includes responsible water management, the reuse of waste such as oilcake (the residue from oil extraction) and a commitment to organic farming in many cases.

🌱 Fewer intermediaries, less environmental impact: When you buy directly from the cooperative, you contribute to reducing the ecological footprint of transportation and unnecessary packaging.

4. Fair price and transparency

In a cooperative, you pay for the real value of the product, without intermediaries who raise the price. This allows you to obtain a high-quality extra virgin oil at a more affordable price, with the certainty that the cost reflects the work and resources invested in its production.

5. Experience and proximity

Buying from a cooperative is more than just purchasing a product; it’s an experience. You can visit the facilities, learn about the production process and even taste different varieties of oil. This direct contact generates trust and a unique connection with the product and the territory.
