Fábrica Aloe Vera La Oliva
Organic aloe vera farm and processing plant in La Oliva, northern Fuerteventura, on the FV-10 road. It grows its own aloe on the Las Coronas estate and processes it in a plant opened in 2020. One of the pioneering aloe companies in the Canaries, selling its production direct.
Fábrica Aloe Vera La Oliva brings growing and processing together in one place, on the Las Coronas estate on the arid plains of northern Fuerteventura. The aloe is cultivated organically, making use of the constant sun and scarce rainfall of the island, conditions that concentrate the gel inside the leaves. In 2020 the company opened a modern processing plant with strict food safety controls, and its products carry the Aloe Vera Fresca quality mark, which guarantees a minimum of 95 per cent organic aloe vera.
The estate turns out aloe juices, gels and frozen fillets in various formats and grades, sold at the company shop on Avenida Tabaibare in La Oliva and online. The farm sits right on the FV-10, the road linking La Oliva with Villaverde and the north, and the plantations are visible from the roadside with Montaña de la Arena and the lava badlands behind. Anyone wanting to see the fields or the plant from the inside should arrange it with the company beforehand, as this is a working facility. It fits neatly into a day around the north of the island taking in La Oliva and its historic centre.
