As of September 11, the European Union has officially approved the registration of a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) for all extra virgin olive oil of Crete.

This decision confirms the uniqueness, authenticity and high quality of Cretan olive oil, which is produced in one of the most important olive growing centres of the Mediterranean. This is a great recognition that enhances the value of the product both in the Greek market and in international exports, offering added value to producers and a guarantee of quality to consumers.

Cretan olive oil is not just a product, but a part of the history, culture and gastronomy of the place – now with the official seal of the European Union.

In this context, Elasion Cretan Olive Oil continues to offer the consumer a product of superior quality, faithful to the land and culture of Crete. With the new PGI seal, Elasion olive oils acquire even greater value, offering a guarantee of origin and a taste that stands out.

Cretan olive oil is not just a product; it is identity, culture and authentic gastronomy – and Elasion is proud to be part of this recognition.
