THE ART OF OLIVE OIL SINCE 1887.
To make olive oil is a real art. In Morocco this art has a name: Atlas Olive Oils. The story began in 1887 when Boujida Aqallal started producing his famous extra virgin olive oil. Since then this noble art has been handed down from generation to generation and is still alive today, intact in the passion and new in the thought.
A DEVELOPMENT THAT HELPS THE COUNTRY.
Only through a responsible development protecting the environment and the people you can judge the real company’s greatness. Atlas Olive Oils is ever since aware of the importance of such values and has chosen to develop its activity in a sustainable way:
• helping farmers
• saving water
• caring workers
• fighting desertification
THE GARDENERS OF THE DESERT.
Since 4 generations, the Aqallal Family is dedicated to olive trees’ planting and olive growing from the end of the 19th century. Our estates are located in the dry areas of Morocco where we cultivate around 1000 Ha of olive orchards for over one million four hundred thousands olive trees. Our goal is to reach the highest quality standards through sustainable development and an integrated production.
AN OASIS IN THE DESERT.
The estate of El-Borouj, with its 153 Ha, is located in the middle of a rocky desert on the phosphate plateau at 150 Kilometers from Casablanca towards Marrakech. In this place, we have the optimal/unique agronomic characteristics required by the olive trees to produce such an exceptional quantity of polyphenols.
