Cooperativa San Amador
Description
La Cooperativa Agrícola San Amador was located in the heart of the urban centre of Martos, which for decades has been the largest municipality cultivated by olive trees in the world. San Amador was established in 1960 as a new initiative for the small and medium olive tree in the region.
From the traditional system of pressing of oil by means of capachos, made by hand in the very facilities of our Almazara, in 1994 it was moved to the continuous ecological of two phases, modernizing and improving, in all respects, the process of obtaining virgin olive oil.
The cooperative currently has 702 partners and an olive area of 2,888.17 ha., with an average production of 13 million kilos of olive and 3 million kilos of oil. Since 2007, it has also packaged for its marketing the brand Tucciolito, an extra virgin very well valued by different tasting panels and very awarded in both national and international competitions. The brand incorporates the quality marchamo certified by the Agriculture and Fisheries Council of the Junta de Andalucía.
