For the second consecutive Olympic Games, we are proud to announce that the olive oils and vinegar from our supplier Veronica Foods were selected by the official US Caterer to nourish the US Olympic pavilions in Rio serving USA athletes and international press. The products are being incorporated into thousands of daily meals in several different locations.

“The olive oils and balsamic vinegar that the Bradleys procure and create will be perfectly paired with the fresh and organic ingredients Crisafulli’s team purchases locally to make healthy meals for the athletes”.

Chef Crisafulli selected over 30 oils and vinegars to be featured in various dishes and to be used as dressings. – “What makes these products so special are the many years this family has partnered with olive oil producers all over the world, ensuring they produce according to their criteria to extract the maximum health benefits and taste from the olives. Procuring all over the world allows them to follow the season and to constantly sell very fresh oils.”
