DE LA ESTRELLA - GRUPO

Founded in 1963 in Los Santos de Maimona, in the heart of southern Extremadura, De La Estrella is today one of the region’s most important agricultural groups. With over 1,200 members—mostly small, local farmers—this group has grown steadily over the past six decades, combining tradition with innovation to bring the very best of its land to consumers around the world. De La Estrella specializes in the production of extra virgin olive oil and premium wines, both crafted with a deep respect for the environment and a commitment to quality that begins in the field. Currently, De La Estrella exports to more than 15 countries, earning international recognition for the quality, authenticity, and traceability of its products. Its oils, made predominantly from local varieties such as Morisca, Arbequina and Picual, stand out for their balance, flavor, and health benefits, while its wines express the unique terroir of this privileged corner of Spain, marked by its climate, soils, and the indigenous grape "EVA". Beyond its commercial success, the Group plays a crucial social and economic role in the region. By supporting smallholder agriculture and promoting generational renewal in rural areas, it contributes to preserving the local way of life and keeping the countryside alive. Its activity generates significant employment and helps ensure that farming remains a viable and dignified profession. De La Estrella is more than a producer—it is a symbol of resilience, sustainability, and community. It represents a model of rural development based on collective effort, long-term vision, and the promotion of high-quality agri-food products with identity and origin.
