OUR HISTORY

THE ORIGINS

 

Starting from 1922, as reported by the notary deed, Giuseppe de Ruvo, an expert olive grower, and his wife bought land, which they cultivated with hard work and immense passion.

BIRTH OF ANCIENT MILL

 

In the 1900s the agricultural entrepreneurial activity of the de Ruvo family began. In 1962, Giuseppe's son, the young IGNAZIO de Ruvo, an olive grower for generations, and his family bought a historic building from the early 1900s in Molfetta, where they built a great and suggestive oil mill, with millstones. and a system of presses with filtering disks..

DE RUVO GIUSEPPE'S FARM BORNS

 

In 1989, GIUSEPPE, Ignazio's eldest son, following the teachings of his father, established the DE RUVO GIUSEPPE FARM, a trademark registered in 2007.

CONSTRUCTION OF GREENHOUSES

 

In 1996 Giuseppe and his wife Angela built the first greenhouse, a protected structure for growing horticultural products.

CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW OIL MILL

 

After years spent researching new techniques and systems for the production of an high quality oil, in 1999 Giuseppe in collaboration with his father, thanks to his determination, began the works for the construction of the new oil mill in Molfettta , on the Provincial Road. 112 Molfetta / Terlizzi . The Oil mill will be inaugurated in October 1999.

REGISTRATION OF THE "OLIO DE RUVO" TRADEMARK

From that moment the oil of the De Ruvo Giuseppe’s farm will be “ OLIO DE RUVO “ (DE RUVO OIL), produced only in the Oil Mill of GIUSEPPE DE RUVO in MOLFETTA, on the Provincial Road. 112 Molfetta / Terlizzi
