Several products made domestically in Brazil are destined for export on a world scale. In some cases, the items are recognized, as is the case of our olive oil, which has won several awards.
And that's how a national brand, Sabiá, received recognition for having the best olive oil production in the world. Its product was classified as the best among those evaluated outside Italy — the country that dominates this export niche.

The production of this olive oil takes place in a city in the interior of São Paulo, called Santo Antônio do Pinhal, since 2014.
Behind the brand is the couple Bia Pereira and Bob Vieira da Costa, responsible for the cultivation, who started the business in a family way.
Bia and Bob carried out the first harvest in 2018 and 2019, and intended their accomplishments for their family members to taste. Over time, production has increased and, currently, there are more than 81 recognitions worldwide.
