Certified Origins was founded by olive oil growÂers in Tuscany and interÂnaÂtional food experts to proÂvide high-qualÂity, susÂtainÂable, and genÂuine ingreÂdiÂents for peoÂple’s pleaÂsure and health. The comÂpany, now a global leader in priÂvate label proÂgrams for extra virÂgin olive oil, has expanded its operÂaÂtions worldÂwide and recently announced a $25 milÂlion investÂment to estabÂlish a botÂtling plant in Virginia.

Certified Origins was born from the vision of two coopÂerÂaÂtives of olive oil growÂers in Tuscany, in partÂnerÂship with an interÂnaÂtional group of food experts. Together, they comÂbined a decades-long pasÂsion and knowlÂedge for high-qualÂity extra virÂgin olive oil, with the desire to conÂtribute to people’s pleaÂsure and health through good food using susÂtainÂable and genÂuine ingreÂdiÂents.

Today the comÂpany is a truly global group comÂposed of the best food proÂducÂers, farmÂers and olive oil coopÂerÂaÂtives from the Mediterranean area, a leader in priÂvate labels proÂgrams for high-qualÂity extra virÂgin olive oil and traceÂable preÂmium foods.
A Resilient Global Distribution Network
Certified Origins is physÂiÂcally present in sevÂeral counÂtries worldÂwide, with operÂaÂtions and teams in Italy, the United States, Spain, Mexico, and China. Each locaÂtion offers cusÂtomized serÂvices and access to an extenÂsive disÂtriÂbÂuÂtion netÂwork of wareÂhouses and transÂportaÂtion. Certified Origin’s flexÂiÂble and fast delivÂery and invenÂtory manÂageÂment serÂvices have proven to be deciÂsive in hanÂdling the recent chalÂlenges preÂsented by the Covid panÂdemic, truckÂing strikes, and port conÂgesÂtion.

To furÂther conÂsolÂiÂdate its presÂence in the United States and expand the serÂvices availÂable for the local marÂket, Certified Origins has just announced a $25 milÂlion investÂment to estabÂlish its first botÂtling plant, soon to open, in Newport News, Virginia.
A Traceable and Carbon Neutral Olive Oil
The Certified Origins Extra Virgin Olive Oil supÂply chain is fully traceÂable and cerÂtiÂfied by third parÂties. It uses Oracle’s blockchain: a techÂnoÂlogÂiÂcal platÂform through which each stage of the proÂducÂtion cycle is conÂtrolled and shared with all the playÂers involved.

Bellucci’s Italian Extra virÂgin olive oil brand is among the flagÂships of Certified Origins’ offerÂings. The comÂpany proÂduces it in Italy and disÂtribÂutes it excluÂsively abroad.
Through a colÂlabÂoÂraÂtion with ClimatePartner, Bellucci comÂmitÂted to comÂpenÂsatÂing carÂbon emisÂsions for some of its best-sellÂing olive oils, the Toscano PGI extra virÂgin olive oil and the Italian Organic EVOO, while workÂing to reduce its footÂprint along the supÂply chain, from culÂtiÂvaÂtion to packÂagÂing.
The cliÂmate-friendly Bellucci lines will soon be availÂable at varÂiÂous locaÂtions nationÂwide, includÂing Kroger, Harris Teeter, Decicco’s, Central Market, and sevÂeral other leadÂing retailÂers in the USA.
