Arvos Announces the Launch of a Global Olive Company
References: prnewswire
Arvos has launched as an integrated global olive company that unites Bell-Carter Foods from California, AG Olives from Spain, Georgoudis S.A. from Greece, and the newly acquired Père Olive from Belgium. This move creates a single source for retailers across more than 80 countries and these entities combine sourcing at origin, industrial processing, and local market execution to simplify the traditionally fragmented olive category.
Arvos’ acquisition of Père Olive, a Belgian specialist in chilled Mediterranean products — from olives and antipasti to dips, expands the company’s capabilities into the growing chilled ready-to-eat segment. It also establishes a European hub for chilled product development and innovation.
The combination of California, Spanish, and Greek origins under one global olive company framework means that a retailer can now work with a single supplier to stock everything from basic canned black olives to premium Greek Kalamatas to Spanish Gordal olives.
