‘QvExtra’ quality seal launches in Córdoba

The Andalusian city of Córdoba hosted the first “International Congress of Extra Virgin Olive Oil” organized by QvExtra, an association of EVOO producers. The program featured presentations on health, gastronomy, production and marketing – and the unveiling of a new quality certification seal. Attending the two-day event were QvExtra members – mostly producers from Spain – seeking to distinguish their products in the marketplace by adhering to strict guidelines and displaying a gold seal that certifies olive oil to be extra virgin quality for the duration of its shelf life.
