Kanakis Olive Oil is a family-owned olive oil production company based in the Apokoronas region of Chania, Crete, with a rich history dating back to 1965. The business specializes in producing premium quality extra virgin olive oil, made exclusively from the Koroneiki olive variety grown in their privately owned olive groves.
With complete control over all stages of production—from cultivation and harvesting to cold extraction and bottling—Kanakis Olive Oil ensures a pure, natural product of high nutritional value, rich flavor, and robust organoleptic characteristics. The cold pressing process preserves all the valuable nutrients and antioxidant properties of the olive oil.
In addition to exceptional extra virgin olive oil, the company offers a wide range of traditional Cretan products, including olives, honey, olive-based specialties, natural cosmetics, traditional souvenirs, and handcrafted olive wood products. Every item reflects the authentic culinary and agricultural traditions of Crete.
The olive mill also welcomes visitors to its facilities, offering guests a comprehensive, educational experience to discover the journey of olive oil production, straight from the field to the final product.
