A story that began in 1906
AGRICOLA CHIERA
The Family of Taste
FARMERS
We are a family. Before being producers, we are guardians of an agricultural tradition that has lasted for over a century. Every bottle of our olive oil, every sip of our wines, and every jar of our preserves holds a story shaped by hard work, land, sun, and passion.
FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO YOUR HOME
We cultivate over 500 hectares of land across Calabria, Puglia—where the sea air reaches the plants—and the Lake Garda region. We select the finest raw materials and personally oversee every stage: production, harvesting, processing, and sales.
The Italian Oil Mill in Lugano
A place to talk about olive oil, olive varieties, and vintages directly with the growers and producers.
What do we love? Bringing the most authentic flavors of our land to your table, with the same care we devote to our family.
When you shop with us, you’re buying directly from the producer. This means traceable, authentic products, fair prices, and the assurance that behind every label, there’s us—with our name, our story, and our faces.

A 100-year history…
Since 1906, a family story written in the land
In a sun-scorched Calabria, Grandfather Francesco, a determined and visionary man, planted the first olive trees on the slopes of his land. Since then, we have never stopped cultivating both the trees and the dream of bringing truly genuine, good, and honest agricultural products to the table.
In 1988, we grandchildren planted new olive groves in the municipalities of Isca sullo Ionio and Sellia Marina. In 1990, we arrived in Salento, planting both olive groves and vineyards.
Today we have reached the fourth generation, and the spirit of Grandfather Francesco continues to guide us. We have three olive oil mills in Calabria, Puglia, and the Lake Garda region, as well as a winery in Puglia where we produce our wines. We combine traditional methods with modern technologies to respect the environment and enhance every terroir we work in.
WHERE WE PRODUCE
Calabria
Rugged and generous land, where the sun warms centuries-old olive trees and vineyards, and every drop tells of authenticity of a unique territory in the World.
Apulia
Amidst expanses of olive trees, vineyards and the sea air caressing the land, we cultivate the intense taste of the South with expert hands and open hearts.
Lake Garda
Mild climate, light breezes and unique terroir. Here an elegant, fresh and delicately fruity Garda oil is born.
WHAT WE PRODUCE
From our farm to your table, without intermediate steps.
This means more freshness, more transparency, more quality and more convenience.
OIL
Our oil comes from family olive groves cultivated between Calabria, Puglia just a stone ' s throw from the Sea and on Lake Garda with its proverbial unique microclimate.
Choose from Delicate flavor, Intense Fruity, BIO Extra Virgin, Coratina monocultivar or fine Garda.
WINE
Our Red, White and Rosé wines come to life in the heart of Salento there where the scents of the sea mingle with those of the land.
We use only selected grapes, hand-picked and processed by traditional methods for an authentic, intense wine perfect for any occasion.
PRESERVES IN JARS
Authentic flavors preserved in our olive oil: carefully selected sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, eggplant and tuna, processed according to tradition and immediately ready to enjoy.
Perfect for a rich appetizer, a genuine aperitif or to give a special touch to your dishes.
