Cultivated for thousands of years, olives are a fruit native to the Mediterranean basin. According to the International Olive Council, an organization devoted to promoting and supporting table olives and olive oil, an estimated 3 million tons of oil get produced annually.

The longtime consumption of olive oil and its connection to ancient Greek culture inspire Dia Elis’ packaging. Elis, located in the Peloponnese area, was home to the ancient Olympics and where Dia Elis’ Koroneiki olives are grown and cold-pressed into EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil).
