The Protected Designation of Origin (DOP) Estepa has concluded its olive oil campaign with a total production of 38 million kilograms of olive oil, of which over 80% falls into the extra virgin category, reinforcing its commitment to quality.

This figure was announced by the designation of origin, which comprises 14 municipalities and 19 cooperatives. Despite adverse weather conditions that caused damage to many olive groves and a slight decrease in production, the campaign has been assessed as “generally good and positive.”

"Our oils are organoleptically excellent and are available to consumers on supermarket shelves."
