The company holds D.O. Baena, D.O. Lucena, and EU Organic certifications.

Pricing ranges from €2.68/L for bulk institutional formats (e.g., 3.6L mayonnaise cubes) to €28.78/L for the 25th Anniversary Limited Edition olive oil. Distribution covers Spain (72h peninsula delivery), the EU (7-10 days), and international markets managed through an in-house export department handling documentation, transport, and tariffs.

The product portfolio spans nine categories organized across multiple sub-brands including Dórica (standard), Selección Gourmet (premium D.O. certified), Eco Premium (organic), Flavia (sustainable RPET), Colheita (limited harvest), and Oligor (value/outlet). Most-sold items center on monodosis oil and tomato formats alongside RPET-packaged AOVE bottles. The company's primary value proposition is one-stop condiment supply for hospitality operators seeking hygienic, portion-controlled, sustainable single-serve formats.
