Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Colavita is a world-renowned brand synonymous with authentic Italian extra virgin olive oil. Founded in 1938 in the small village of Sant'Elia a Pianisi in Molise, Italy, the brand was established by the Colavita family, starting with a small olive mill. Over decades, it evolved from a local family tradition into a global leader in the premium oil market.

While the brand is deeply rooted in Italian heritage, its manufacturing processes can involve blending high-quality oils sourced from various European Union regions to maintain consistent flavor profiles, though its premium lines remain strictly Italian. The brand is currently owned and managed by the Colavita family through their company, Colavita S.p.A., which remains headquartered in Italy. They have successfully maintained their independence and family-owned status into the 2020s and beyond, continuing to distribute their products across more than 70 countries.
