We are so proud. This recognition will help us to continue working with the joy of producing a high-quality extra virgin olive oil, while protecting biodiversity.
Guillaume de Foucault, CEO
The Haute-Provence-based producer earned a Silver Award for its Green Fruity Heritage brand, a delicate Aglandau. The company previously earned three Gold Awards since 2020.
"We are so proud," chief executive Guillaume de Foucault said. "This recognition will help us to continue working with the joy of producing a high-quality extra virgin olive oil while protecting biodiversity."
De Foucault cited climate change as the company's most significant challenge. "Climate change is a real challenge for us already in the south of France in Provence," he confirmed. "This is why we promote an agro-forestry culture as much as possible."
