The region of AVIA is known for its mild climate, which is due to its geological conditions as well as extensive sunshine (approx. 3,000 hrs/year). The name of AVIA is derived from mythology. She was the wet nurse of Hercules son "Ghlinos", according to Homer, who came to the area in the 11th century B.C. and founded a temple in Hercules honor.

The olive has been cultivated here for thousands of years. Today it remains, for all of us, a symbol. The olive and its oil are associated with light, fertility, purity and human virtues.

The ability of olive oil to feed the soul and brighten the hearth, its culinary and cosmetic qualities, as well as therapeutic traits, are known all over the world. AVIA olive oil is cold pressed and is distinguished by its brilliant color, rich flavor and unique aroma of freshness yielded by the Koronian olive variety.


The olive and olive oil, for us the olive producers, constitutes a very important part of our cultural heritage.
