1930 Porcuna Factory
Start of activity
It was born in Porcuna, Jaén, a small oil mill, run by D. Luis Torres Torres, grandfather of the current manager of Aceites Maeva. It is an industrial oil mill that produces 'Santo Rostro' olive oil and that responds to the demands of its surroundings. His success is such that he decides to start a new stage outside of Andalusia.

Commercial concern to publicize a product of our land
That is what led D.Juan Francisco Torres Morente, son of the founder, to open a small oil office with the traditional crank system in the center of Madrid. Located on Calle del Sombrerete, in the Lavapies neighborhood; we find 'Aceites Santo Rostro Puro de Oliva de Cosechero a Consumidor'. This place was the protagonist of long lines in search of its precious olive oil, also motivated by the new law of the Council of Ministers that authorized the free price of oil.
