About Eliva
Eliva was founded by people born in Chania, Crete, who deeply cherish their homeland. With a long family tradition in olive oil production, they remain committed to preserving the island’s rich heritage.
Crete is a place where food is celebrated. Families gather around long tables, recipes are passed down with stories, and the olive tree stands as a symbol of life, health, and connection. At Eliva, we believe the best flavours come from the land, the people, and the traditions that nurture them.
Our mission is simple: to bring a piece of this Cretan heritage to your home.
Our roots in Crete
Crete has produced olive oil for more than 7,500 years, making it one of the oldest olive-growing regions in the world. Its fertile soil, warm Mediterranean climate, and mountain-filtered waters create the perfect environment for exceptional olives and natural, mineral-rich sea salt.
We work closely with local producers, farmers, and family-owned groves who have refined their craft over generations. Their knowledge, respect for the land, and commitment to quality are at the heart of everything we do.
Eliva serves consumers who prioritize authenticity, nutritional value, and trust in producers. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, Eliva’s Extra Virgin Cretan Olive Oil comes directly from carefully selected local sources. Above all, it reflects tradition, quality, and a commitment to natural, time-honored methods.
