Coorong Case Study - Coonalpyn Olives

Coonalpyn was chosen as the preferred region as olives prefer temperate climates, which is why areas around Adelaide and to the South—East have ideal climates for olive production.

Coonalpyn Olives is located in the Southern part of the optimum zone of olive production in Australia and so produces balanced, tasty and user friendly extra virgin olive oil.  The scale of Coonalpyn Olives, the location, the soil types, and the choice of varieties suits mechanised production and produces the highest quality olive oil. Coonalpyn Olives is now a world class supplier of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

"Coonalpyn's climate and soils are perfect for olive production and the Coorong region is ideal for my family to enjoy the benefits of country lifestyle, quality services and education facilities.  With easy access via maintained major roads to other parts of the Murraylands region, we are well situated for future growth." Jim Rowntree, Manager
