Jersey City, New Jersey (PRWEB) December 10, 2014 -- EVGE, a Greek olive oil company specializing in extra virgin olive oil, olives, and olive paste, has announced the launch of their products in the United States.
EVGE’s Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil are produced from Koroneiki olives from the famed Peloponnese region of Greece. The olives are hand harvested and then cold pressed immediately in order to ensure that their nutritional attributes are maintained in addition to having low acidity, balanced taste, rich texture and a vibrant aroma.
In discussing the company’s long-term plans for the American market, CEO and Managing Director Mr. John Papageorgiou said, “America has begun to embrace the Mediterranean-Greek diet. We at EVGE couldn’t be happier to supply the very staple of this healthy diet; premium quality olive oil. Healthy cooking and eating begins with olive oil and EVGE produces some of the finest in the world. We offer premium quality at affordable prices. Our company’s name translated from Greek is ‘exceptionally done’, and for us, it’s not just a name but our inspiration.”
Building on their momentum, EVGE has already had considerable distinctions come their way.
• EVGE Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil is, in fact, certifiable as organic thanks to the company’s cultivation and processing techniques. However, the company opted to produce a supreme quality Organic EVOO exceeding the standards recommended by the International Olive Oil Council along with organic certification bodies in both Europe and the United States.
• Executive Chef Jeffery Lizotte displayed his culinary mastery exclusively using EVGE Organic EVOO at the Tri-State Food Expo this past September creating stunning dishes much to the praise of participants.
• EVGE Olive Paste was recently recognized and awarded at the Great Taste Awards 2014 Competition.
• EVGE’s products are Kosher certified, a rare distinction for Greek olive oil.
About EVGE Hellenic Food Company: EVGE is based in Athens-Greece and works exclusively with select Greek farmers. The company plans to expand its operations as currently olive oil production reaches between 1-1.2 million bottles annually barely meeting demand. EVGE products are imported and distributed in the United States by Grecian Organics based in North Brunswick New Jersey.
