Società Agricola Pane e Olio

PaneOlio is an Italian agricultural cooperative based in Umbria, in the Lake Trasimeno area, a region with an ancient olive-growing tradition dating back to the Etruscan era. Founded in 1949 by a group of farmers seeking fair and sustainable production conditions, the cooperative has grown into a solid organization that today brings together over 400 olive growers, united by shared values of cooperation, quality, and territorial identity.

The company specializes in the production of high-quality extra virgin olive oil, obtained from organic and carefully selected olives cultivated both in its own groves and by trusted suppliers across Italy. Every stage of the supply chain is strictly controlled to guarantee traceability, food safety, and consistent quality standards.

PaneOlio combines traditional know-how with cutting-edge technologies in the milling process. Advanced extraction systems are designed to preserve the natural antioxidants (polyphenols) and enhance the oil’s aromatic and sensory profile, resulting in a product with excellent nutritional value and stability over time.

A key strength of the company is its strong focus on innovation and research, including collaborations with academic institutions to improve packaging, storage, and shelf life performance. The use of automated storage systems and nitrogen-controlled environments ensures optimal preservation of the oil’s quality.

PaneOlio also stands out for its commitment to transparency, implementing blockchain technology that allows consumers to trace each product back to its origin. Through a simple QR code, it is possible to access detailed information about the olive grove, production process, and chemical-sensory characteristics of the oil.
