My team and I re-discovered our most important cooking ingredient. We never imagined that we know so little about olive oil! We learned how to evaluate its quality, how to use its different categories, how to pair the different varietals with the dishes of our menu plus some amazing combinations that our guests absolutely loved! Anita, with her great passion for olive oil and expertise, is the best person to introduce you to this amazing world called OLIVE OIL!

Testimonials
Anita is a highly educated professional with deep knowledge of olive oil. Although we sell olive oil every day we knew nothing about it. She taught us how to taste and evaluate olive oil, its quality categories & health benefits, introduced us to new varieties and taught us how to pair them with different foods in order to educate our clients and support our sales in the best way by proposing to each one the most suitable olive oil for his needs.

My collaboration with Anita is a happy occasion from which I feel that I found an excellent collaborator with the same passion for quality Greek products.
Her professionalism, her love for olive oil, her boundless talent for new ideas, high aesthetics and excellence that are ideally combined with her knowledge for holistic wellness create a perfect combination of a consultant and partner equivalent with the high standards of elenianna.com

We have collaborated with Anita for 3 years on our EVOO project. Anita has always been a catalyst for excellence in all aspects of our association. Her passion and commitment to the highest standards have helped my wife and I create very high-quality, award-winning extra virgin olive oil.
From the first time we met, we found Anita to be very knowledgeable and a great team player as we started creating our brand and our EVOO. When we decided to build our own mill Anita was instrumental in assisting with design and providing guidance in the final mill equipment selection and purchase.
Anita is ambitious and committed to the idea that excellent EVOO is worth striving for and bringing education to the world is a mission and challenge she loves.
