Company Profile
In the heart of the Lamezia Terme plain, where the Carolea olive has been rooted for centuries, DOP Lametia Extra Virgin Olive Oil is born — a product that embodies both territory and tradition. Founded in 2000, the Protection Consortium brings together 18 producers united by a single mission: offering an authentic, 100% Italian EVOO whose quality is guaranteed at every stage of production.
In this corner of Calabria, once part of Magna Graecia, the Carolea variety reaches its finest expression. Its sensory profile — gentle fruitiness balanced by elegant bitterness and spiciness — makes it the ideal choice for professionals and food lovers seeking an oil that enhances dishes without overwhelming them. A strict production protocol limits cultivation to just nine municipalities, ensuring traceability and excellence.
The Consortium stands not only for product quality but also for values: organic agriculture, renewable energy, female workforce empowerment, and strong respect for the land. Each member company preserves stories, hospitality, and traditions that turn every visit into an immersive experience inside Calabria’s olive-growing heritage.
Our target includes buyers, chefs, gourmet specialists, and anyone looking for a distinctive, certified EVOO with a strong identity. Beyond premium products, we offer technical tastings, masterclasses, educational events, and culinary collaborations that reveal the true essence of the DOP Lametia territory.
Entering the world of the Lametia Consortium means discovering a story in every drop — and a land waiting to be explored.
