What Oleificio Tiber does

Oleificio Tiber is an Italian family-owned olive oil and seed oil manufacturer based in Rome, with origins tracing back to the early decades of the 20th century. The company operates a 2,500 sqm production facility equipped with modern pressing, refining, and packaging machinery, supporting a daily production capacity of approximately 60,000 liters and stainless-steel tank storage capacity of 350,000 liters. Its product portfolio spans three categories: extra virgin olive oils marketed under sub-brands (Dolci Terre, I Contadini, Aurelia) plus aromatized variants (Gli Aromatizzati); refined olive oils and olive pomace oil; and a broad seed oil range including peanut, sunflower, high-oleic sunflower, bifractionated palm, soybean, corn, mixed seed, and a dedicated frying blend (Mac Fritt). The company also distributes white wine vinegar and Italian tomato condiments.

The business operates a horizontal customer segmentation strategy serving restaurants, food industry buyers, and individual consumers, with packaging formats engineered to match each segment — from 0.250ml anti-refill bottles for foodservice to 1,000-liter tanks for industrial customers. Distribution is direct via a company-owned fleet, delivering within 3-5 working days across Lazio and central Italy; there is no evidence of international distribution, third-party retail partnerships, or e-commerce channels. Quality control is certified by independent laboratory Chemiservice S.R.L. No digital sales infrastructure, API, mobile application, or social media presence is evident from the source material, and the company's website is a static catalog last copyrighted in 2016.
