About ELIA

ELIA is more than just a brand of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, it is a representation of a family's history, traditions, and values. The story of ELIA began in 1850 when John N. Petrou purchased several parcels of olive tree orchards in Molaoi Lakonia Greece. He started cultivating and pressing extra virgin Extra Virgin Olive Oil by hand for his family and friends. The process and land have been passed down from generation to generation. ELIA is more than just a product; it is a force that brings families together. In Greece, olives are not just a product; they are deeply rooted in the country's traditions and culture. During Easter church services, people are anointed with Extra Virgin Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and during baptisms, EVOO is rubbed all over the children to keep them slippery from evil. ELIA is a representation of hope, family, and traditions that stay with us through our lives. From our family to yours, ELIA is an opportunity to share the miracle of this unique Extra Virgin Olive Oil, its history, and Grecian culture.Read their story
