Living in Greece for many years we were fortunate enough to have sourced the very best Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) directly from the producers. On deciding to return to Melbourne a vibrant, exciting city with a feel-good vibe, there were a few things we couldn’t do without, our best-loved foods from the southern Mediterranean was on our list of “must haves”. Our answer to overcoming the longing for premium delicious foods was to begin importing them ourselves.
Starting off on a small scale we are currently importing Greek extra virgin olive oil, olives and stuffed peppers from the South-east Peloponnese. The mountainous, rocky landscape combined with the envied mediterranean climate has for centuries made it the ideal location for producing exceptional Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO). The two varieties of olives selected for the production of the EVOO we import are the Koroneiki and the Manaki olives. The combination of the two varieties produce a full-bodied, olive oil with a fruity aroma.
Initially introducing our own brand of quality Greek EVOO into a select range of stores throughout Melbourne, we’ve cautiously expanded the range and added olives as well as stuffed bell peppers to the delicious antipasti foods we now import.
Enriching the range of food available via our online store and through our stockists is one of our goals,
Being committed to preserving the high quality of foods we import is our priority,
To ensure that we are able to continue growing our list of foods whilst maintaining the quality, we travel to southern Europe to meet with the producers, taste the foods and ensure that what we import meets our standards. In short what this means is that the food we bring over for our own consumption is what we sell through our stockists and online store.
