History & Tradition
In 1982 the father of our founder, Carlos Guillén Carrera, is awarded by the FAO for having the best olive crop in the area and for the control of pests and diseases of the olive tree. This inspired our founder, Carlos Guillén Velásquez, to start an olive company with the highest quality standards.
