A new, larger jar of Cypressa's Garlic & Jalapeno Double Stuffed Halkidiki Olives is now available at Costco. The new product features delicious olives grown exclusively in the Greek Halkidiki region, which has unique climate and soil conditions that affect the plant's development. Once picked, the olives are harvested and hand-stuffed with garlic and jalapeños.
The Garlic & Jalapeno Double Stuffed Halkidiki Olives are perfect for sharing at summer celebrations, as a weeknight snack, or paired with your favorite dinner.
“Costco is renowned for carrying top-quality national brands, so we are pleased to be increasing our offer this summer with this new launch,” comments Harry Constantinou, Commercial Controller at Cypressa. “Our Garlic & Jalapeno Double Stuffed Halkidiki olives are the perfect choice for summer parties, with the large format allowing maximum sharing opportunities for those on tighter budgets.”
