Vouno Olive Press
Local producer
Vouno Olive Press is a family-owned olive oil producer established in 1971 in the village of Agios Leon, in the mountainous interior of Zakynthos. The press works predominantly with Koroneiko olives — around 80% from modern cultivations and 20% harvested from indigenous trees over 500 years old, growing on terraced hillside plots in the area. Pressing takes place between October and January following the traditional harvest cycle. Zakynthos as a whole produces between 6,000 and 8,000 tonnes of olive oil annually, and the elevated interior around Agios Leon is one of its primary olive-growing zones.
