Pompeian’s Sunrise Olive Ranch Olive Oil Earns Global Recognition for Quality and Sustainability

Pompeian, America’s #1 olive oil brand, has earned top honors at three of the world’s most prestigious olive oil competitions, a testament to the exceptional quality of its California-grown oils and its ongoing commitment to sustainable, innovative farming.

At the heart of these accolades is Sunrise Olive Ranch, located in California’s Cuyama Valley. The ranch was the first olive farm in North America to earn the Sustainably Grown^® Certification from SCS Global Services, anchoring Pompeian’s bold commitment to certify 100% of its farms by 2030. To date, 30% of Pompeian’s olive oil farms have already achieved this certification.

At Sunrise Olive Ranch and across the world, Pompeian’s dedication to continuous improvement is reflected in its sustainable practices, which have been recognized with the prestigious Zurich International Olive Oil Award (IOOA) for sustainability and innovation, making Pompeian the only American brand to receive this honor. In addition, Pompeian received three Gold Medals at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition and multiple honors at the 2025 Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition, including Best of Class, Best Delicate – Domestic, two Golds, and a Silver Medal.

“Our dream is to transform the olive oil industry through sustainability and high-quality olive oil,” said Paula Lopes, Pompeian’s VP of Quality, R&D, and Sustainability. “These awards honor the growers and innovators working to make better olive oil for people and the planet.”

Pompeian continues to lead with purpose, producing olive oils that reflect a deep commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability on the farm, in the bottle, and at every table.
