ZafraRío

ZafraRío is a Spanish company specializing in the production and sale of olive oil. The name is a portmanteau of "Zafra," meaning harvest, and "Río," meaning river, reflecting the company's connection to the land and the life-giving water essential for olive cultivation. Founded in Andalusia, a region renowned for its olive oil production, ZafraRío focuses on traditional methods combined with modern technology to ensure the quality of its products.

The company cultivates its own olive groves, primarily using native Andalusian varieties such as Picual and Hojiblanca. These olives are harvested at optimal ripeness, typically by hand or using mechanical shakers to minimize damage to the fruit. Following harvesting, the olives are transported quickly to the company's mill for processing. This rapid processing is crucial in preserving the fresh aroma and delicate flavors of the olive oil, preventing oxidation and the development of unwanted characteristics.

ZafraRío offers a range of olive oils, including extra virgin olive oil. Their commitment to quality is often highlighted through certifications and awards received at national and international olive oil competitions. The company also emphasizes sustainability in its agricultural practices, aiming to minimize its environmental impact through water conservation and responsible land management. ZafraRío's products are distributed both domestically within Spain and exported to various international markets, catering to consumers seeking high-quality, authentic olive oil.
