It was in 1947 that Marius Arnaud, settled in the heart of Provence in Fontvieille, launched into olive confectionery. A true expertise, passed down with passion from generation to generation.
Today, the company perpetuates the tradition and high standards of its founder. With a high performance production unit, Olives Arnaud exports its quality products both internationally and
to the neighboring village.
The brand is now present on all tables: from simple aperitifs with friends to sophisticated recipes, it embodies, with its delicious olives of France, one of the essential facets of Provençal heritage…
Olive trees have been an integral part of Mediterranean landscapes for millennia. The Greeks
developed the culture of this tree, which set the geographical borders of a civilisation. Olive trees are rich with symbolism: peace, fecundity, purification, strength…
To this day, olive trees still evoke powerful symbols. Their cultivation in Provence during the last two centuries provided a source of light and was used to make soap. They also provided our ancestors with a source of healthy fats in the form of olive oil and cured olives.
The olive tree calls to mind regions where the weather is always fine and people live longer and better than anywhere else! The fruit, which cannot be eaten without human preparation (curing, canning, cooking, and so
forth) is chock full of history.
Olives are always in season and bring gatherings to life!
