200 Years of Pure Olive Oil
About Our Family's Farms
For over 200 years, the Dimitri Giannakos / Komninos Family has been producing the finest extra virgin olive oil at the foothills of Mt. Taygetos. Nestled along the backdrop of idyllic green slopes and steep fir-covered hills, the family’s olive farms are located just 20 km south of Sparta and 20 km north of the Mediterranean coast. These are perfect conditions to produce a special harvest of olive oil. Enjoy our fruity and robust flavor with a very prominent peppery finish.

The Dimitri Legacy
Farmer, Producer, Importer
Dimitrios Giannakos
In the early 2000s, Dimitri Giannakos took over the family’s farms in Greece and decided it was time to bring this superior quality EVOO to the states to share with family, friends, restaurants and other potential wholesale accounts. As a young kid, Giannakos watched his grandfather and father produce the best olive oil in the world and importing it to the USA would be the best way to honor his family. Dimitri named the brand Dimitri Olive Oil after his grandfather.
President, CEO
Dimitrios Komninos
Born and raised in Athens, Greece, Dimitri Komninos came to the USA at 11 years old. Besides missing his family and country, he missed the fresh, pure extra virgin olive oil that his grandfather always stored in the basement. This pure olive oil came from the family’s olive farms in the village of Krokees in southern Greece. This is where Dimitri’s grandmother was born, located 20km from Sparta. Right out of high school, Dimitri joined his stepdad (Giannakos) in the business. Dimitri traveled back to Greece to learn the process of picking olives and producing the olive oil. While studying at the University of Baltimore in International Business, Komninos gained a lot of knowledge and worked to expand the product line, scale up the business and manage wholesale accounts nationwide.
