What\u2019s a fun fact about your business that people might not know?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What brings most folks to The Splendid Olive is the quest for delicious olive oil. But what keeps them coming back? It’s discovering the remarkable health benefits of our fresh EVOO when they visit. It’s not just about taste; it’s about nourishing well-being, and that’s why our customers become devoted to our products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the most popular item in your store?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two items that are neck and neck for most popular. First is our most recent addition which is a Koroneiki Greek EVOO that comes from fourth generation growers in the south region of Greece. It\u2019s incredibly healthy with a super high polyphenol count and a herbaceous rich flavour. The other most popular item is a staple in all of our customer pantries, our Traditional Cask 18 balsamic vinegar from Modena, Italy. We receive people coming back time and time again for it, even having to hide it from their family members so it isn\u2019t gone too quick!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What sets your business apart from competitors?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are proud to be a women owned business that\u2019s independently owned and operated. We source all our products ourselves from the best suppliers in the world, working only with growers and suppliers that certify the quality of their products. We know that what we\u2019re sharing with our community is top notch, premium quality olive oil with incredible health benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you share some of the key milestones and successes your business has achieved?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of our proudest moments was stepping out independently this year and rebranding as The Splendid Olive. We\u2019ve been able to expand our product range of best-in-class EVOO\u2019s and we also carry a variety of unique and gourmet pantry items. Most importantly, we’ve received heartwarming feedback from customers who’ve experienced the health benefits of our olive oils, which is a driving force for our purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
