Next to the monumental city of Baeza, Oleícola San Francisco has become the first tourist mill in the province of Jaén, with registration at the Tourism Board of the Junta de Andalucía. In 1989, Manolo Rus and José Jiménez decided to embark on this fascinating olive oil world, acquiring a small factory in Begijar. With a lot of illusion and a few means, they raised together what is today a real reality, a family company, traditional and at the same time at the forefront in means of production. The beginnings were difficult and the means they had were those of the time: hydraulic presses, capachos, decanting stoves, great atroops and, above all, the illusion each year of getting the best of the possible oils. It has facilities fully adapted to guided tours, bus parking area, services adapted to disabled, access ramps, attached areas, projection room with seats for 25 people, large tasting room for courses and tastings, etc.

The opening of the new mill in 2014 and subsequent opening in September 2015 was a commitment to oleoturism as an instrument for diversification of the traditional business model, but also as a pedagogical tool, to spread the culture of olive oil and to disseminate the excellence of AOVE, against other fats.

The new facilities were designed with a view to their tourist function, promoting the compatibility between the oil extraction and bottling activity and the possibility of visiting, oil tasting, tasting, participating in the processes, interpreting and educating about the production of the oil, about its organoleptic and pharmaceutical properties, with a store and restaurant. It should be noted as a milestone that more than 1,000 farmers bet on tourism as a tool for productive diversification and prescription and health education of AOVE.

Another identity of SAYR is Active Tourism. Taking advantage of the months where forest work cannot be carried out for the summer period, it is one more way to see opportunities and benefits of our natural environments that are not currently being carried out, creating wealth in the territory, setting and creating new attractive agents and finally avoiding the depopulation of the rural world.

Tourism is a complement that we see from SAYR to promote natural spaces and influence future generations through environmental education.
