A Diverse Approach
Importing fresh, Extra Virgin Olive Oil from quality groves around the world is where the journey began. Soon after filling a void in commercial kitchens by supplying quality Olive oil to the local Southern California market, the product offerings expanded to a variety of multi-use, versatile oils that served markets nationwide. Expansion of the product list came along with a Quality Assurance on the Global Food Safety Initiative, GFSI program. Today, our products list has broadened to focus on NGMO project verified, and USDA organic oils, with our markets touching foreign shores.
Today, GEMSA has expanded to many different oils and blends that have helped leverage GEMSA to one of the most regarded U.S. companies in its industry. Nonetheless, there is as much care taken now when sourcing, processing, and bottling our precious Extra Virgin Olive Oil as ever before. All Extra Virgin Olive oils supplied by GEMSA comply with USDA and international (IOC) regulations. Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oils that meet the California Specification brought forth by the California Olive Oil Association are also available. Refined “A” olive oil: GEMSA Refined Olive Oil is always obtained by pressing the whole, olive fruit and 100% refined to meet the strictest specifications. A great choice for industrial use and food manufacturers who need a fresh and stable oil. Pure olive oil: This product is very similar to the refined “A” olive oil but with the inclusion of virgin olive oil to add flavor and color to achieve an olive oil that is more versatile and heat resistant with a light olive flavor. Ideal for sautéing, baking, light frying, as well as sauces and dressings. Grapeseed oil: A first choice for creating a dressing or sauce with clean, and nutty flavor. Grapeseed oil is highly regarded for high temperature cooking, its high smoke point, and for not transferring flavor from one ingredient to the other.
