Our industry is changing.
Olive oil has played a central role in our society for millennia. Ancient civilisations offered it to the Gods. Nowadays, we bake, sauté, and season with it.
Every day
Sadly, in the last decades, olive oil has consistently been one of the most counterfeited products in the world.
The industry started blending it with cheaper oils, mislabelling, and declaring untrue origins.
Fundamento is the story of a changing industry. An industry changed by beauty.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they will never sit.” — Old Proverb.
Olive trees last a thousand years.
But they need farmers to plant and take care of them.
