Discover where a brand or product originates
Napolina Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a staple commodity in the United Kingdom's Mediterranean food category. The label explicitly states it is a 'Blend of olive oils of European Union origin', which typically indicates the olives are sourced and processed across various member states such as Italy, Spain, and Greece, depending on the harvest and seasonal availability.
Originally founded in Naples, Italy, in 1965, the brand was created to bring authentic Italian ingredients to the British market. Over the decades, the brand's ownership has transitioned through several major food conglomerates. Today, Napolina is a premier brand under the British multinational food group, Princes Limited.
In a significant industry development leading into 2024 and beyond, the ultimate ownership of Princes Limited (and thereby Napolina) has transitioned from the Japanese Mitsubishi Corporation to the Italian food giant Newlat Food S.p.A. This move effectively returns the brand to Italian corporate ownership, aligning its corporate identity with its Mediterranean heritage.
