FRANTOIO OLEARIO CASSESE SRL

The Frantoio Oleario Cassese, owned by Mr. Giovanni Cassese, is a company that has been operating for four generations in the Villa Castelli area, producing excellent quality extra virgin olive oil. The company has been prestigiously present for years in the Apulian olive and olive oil panorama, but also in the national and international one, and constitutes a flagship of the agricultural, industrial and commercial economy of Villa Castelli and is fully considered the capital of the Oil from this vast area of Puglia, halfway between the South-West Murgia and Alto Salento. The Frantoio Oleario Cassese is characterized mainly by the special methodology of product processing, which is based on the very tight and strictly controlled timing between harvesting with very high technology machines and cold pressing, which never exceeds 8 hours between each phase operational and the other. Particular attention is then paid by the Cassese company to the oil conservation method, which occurs through the rigorous use of underground stainless steel tanks, to guarantee the conservation and exaltation of the organoleptic properties of the extra virgin oil produced. The company has always placed first place the care and attention to every detail of the production chain, from the cultivation of the land and the treatment of the plants to the harvest, and from the cold pressing of the olives to the conservation of the oil, with the aim paramount to always obtain a superior quality EVO product. The commitment and sacrifice of the entire Cassese family, who have always treasured the teachings and inheritance received in the olive and oil fields, have long been focused on the modernization of the plants and production methodologies, with the sole aim of delivering to customers an exquisite and genuine product and to gratify themselves professionally and morally for the commitment made. For Giovanni Cassese, therefore, the watchword, constant and almost obsessive, is to always pursue, reach and promote the high quality of its EVO product, characterized by the "ISO 22000" certification and "Quality Product of Puglia", without sparing the necessary and often substantial economic investments aimed at improving the company's production, and deploying a lot of personal and family energy. At the same time, through the marketing of his tasty nectar, he aims to promote the beautiful territory of Villa Castelli at a regional and national level, which includes within it the presence of many precious and evocative peculiarities of an environmental, architectural and archaeological nature, which make it unique in the eyes of visitors.
