We got our start by pioneering new ways of cultivating and harvesting olives in California to make the highest quality extra virgin olive oil at affordable prices.
We've developed our own ranches as well as helped family farmer producers throughout Northern California develop farm acreage into olive orchards using sustainable production methods every step of the way.
In addition to our California farmer partners, we proudly partner with the best extra virgin olive oil producers in some of the best olive growing regions around the world.
Our global partners share our values of sustainable farming practices, premium production methods, and state-of-the-art storage.
All our extra virgin olive oils are certified by Applied Sensory and our California lines additionally uphold the Olive Oil Commission of California (OOCC) standards, one of the strictest in the world.
In 2015, we acquired Lucini Italia, a brand of premium extra virgin olive oils, artisanal vinegars and organic tomato sauces handcrafted in Italy. The addition of Lucini Italia launched a new chapter for us to deliver premium foods beyond extra virgin olive oil.
Brightland makes artfully-crafted ingredients to help pour on a little bit of the good life. Best known for our iconic olive oils, we source all of our products directly from small, family farms in California and Hawaii. With a passion for art both inside and outside the kitchen, we make it our mission to bring beautiful tastes, objects, and experiences to the everyday.
