ABOUT US
Olivízate, a word of fantasy that synthesizes our mission: looking for the pleasure and relish, while helping improve our client´s health.
A few years ago I decided I wanted to start a new business idea. It had been a long-term project of mine, a solid and well-thought out project. It was a personal dream.
My family history may have influenced me: my grand-mother´s grand-father founded the oil company Carbonell in Córdoba. I also had agricultural land in the Córdoba province I wanted to put to use.
In short, a project based on a dream, on patience and sacrifice.
Olive trees were growing, but they did it slowly. Thankfully, I had a very patient wife who encouraged me to continue while our three daughters were growing.
Without a doubt it is a tough learning process but which ends up in knowledge, in wanting to improve and in continuing learning.
Thanks to this experience, I learnt how to produce high quality olives and how to develop Olivízate, a “Grand Cru” brand with an excellent reputation because of its extra virgin olive oils produced from olives collected from our own property.
