Aceitunas Torrent

What Aceitunas Torrent does

Aceitunas Torrent is a fourth-generation, family-owned Spanish table olive and olive oil producer founded in 1898 in Córdoba by Francisco Torrent Terol. The company processes and distributes Hojiblanca, Gordal, and Manzanilla table olives across multiple presentations (whole, pitted, sliced, stuffed) and packaging formats (glass, cans, aluminum pouches, PET), supplemented by AOVE Torrent 1898 extra virgin olive oil and olive pomace oil. Operations are vertically integrated from 200+ hectares of own olive groves in the Genil-Cabra irrigable zone through a 100,000 m² factory complex in Aguilar de la Frontera, which houses storage, seasoning, oxidation, pitting, packaging, laboratory, and on-site water treatment facilities. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, IFS Food, BRCGS, Halal, and Kosher certifications and operates a documented grove-to-table traceability system.

Revenue is generated primarily through B2B export of olives and olive oils to HORECA (food service), retail/supermarkets including private-label manufacturing for retailers, and industrial/bulk customers across more than 80 countries, with a secondary direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel serving the Spanish Peninsula. Product distribution uses standard Incoterms (CFR, CIF, EXWORKS) and is supported by participation in major international food trade shows (Gulfood, SIAL Paris, Speciality & Fine Food Fair London). The portfolio is organized under multiple sub-brands — Torrent, Torrent 1898, Olivalife, Sama Oliva, Bostoliva, Privilegio Al-Andalus, Oliva Clan, and The Coolives — the latter two representing extensions into flavored olive snacks for children and adults respectively. Governance is formalized via a 2015 family protocol, with leadership transitioning to the fourth generation in 2016 and active preparation of a fifth generation underway.
