Founding Story
It all began in the 1890s when the Panagiotopoulos family settled near Ancient Olympia and started to engage in various professions such as winemaking, currant production, medicine, governance, art, and literature. Fast forward to the 1960s, they made a transition to olive groves, setting the stage for their olive oil journey. For three generations, these magnificent trees sustained the family, intertwining their yearly harvests with cherished family tales. In 2013, founder James Panagiotopoulos decided to share the abundance of their crops with the world, embracing a genuine, natural, and wholesome approach to nourishment.
Sustainable Approach
PJ Kabos has adopted a sustainable approach, prioritizing every action based on a deep commitment to preserving our planet. Olives are mindfully sourced from their private groves and small, family-run farms, ensuring a careful selection process. The cherished traditional olive groves that have adorned the Greek landscape for thousands of years are preserved, avoiding the replacement with super high-density groves. To create a conscious product, a chemical-free extraction process is employed, utilizing centrifugal force to guarantee the purity of every drop of their EVOOs.
Organic Certification and Plant Protection
The significance of organic produce and the avoidance of harmful pesticides is fully understood by PJ Kabos. Great lengths are taken to ensure that all their extra virgin olive oils are free from such substances, providing customers with peace of mind as they savor the products. Furthermore, plant protection and nurturing are prioritized by the utilization of organic compost instead of chemical fertilizers in their family groves. To tackle the issue of olive fly infestation, PJ Kabos chooses to utilize fly traps equipped with sugar water and natural deterrents such as talc.
