Why choose a green fruity olive oil for your restaurant?
Green fruity olive oil stands out for its herbaceous aromas and its freshness, which give your dishes a signature of their own. In a restaurant setting it works both as a finishing oil and as a seasoning, showcasing seasonal produce and the chef's creativity. Picking the right format and handling it well day to day are the two key levers for guaranteeing both the quality and the profitability of what you offer.

Green fruity olive oil formats suited to the restaurant trade
200 ml bottle: for the table and individual service
The 200 ml format, elegant and practical, is a perfect fit for table service. It lets you offer fresh oil to every guest while keeping consumption under control and avoiding oxidation. This format is ideal for establishments that want to personalise their experience, in particular with a bottle screen-printed with the restaurant's name.
500 ml or 1 L bottle: for the kitchen and plating
In the kitchen, the 500 ml or 1 L format offers a good compromise between practicality and stock management. It suits plating, finishing touches and cold preparations. The limited edition 1 L ripe fruity olive oil bottle can also inspire a seasonal offer or a signature dish.
5 L tin: for large volumes and cost control
The 5 L tin is reserved for intensive use, particularly in catering or in high-turnover establishments. It brings down the cost per litre, but calls for careful management of storage and decanting. Discover the 5 L tin of organic olive oil for an economical, high-quality solution.

Managing and showcasing green fruity olive oil in your restaurant
Stock rotation and storage
To guarantee freshness and aromatic quality, it is best to favour short rotations and to store the oil away from light and heat. Green fruity oils are more fragile and should be used within six months of opening. Fine-tuning the quantities you order limits waste.
