Olympic Black Pig

The Olympic Black Pig fed on olives is recognised by the EU as a distinct breed.

Fotiadis Farm - Olympus

The Fotiadis family farm has been located since 1925 at the foot of the legendary Mount Olympus – an area with a complete absence of industry.

History of the Black Pig

The Black Pig has been known in Greece for over 3,500 years and is the ancestor of European breeds – based on farming remains found near the city of Drama in northeastern Greece.

Partial free-range grazing, feeding on olives and local herbs gives the meat an exceptional flavour.

The meat contains up to 57× more omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, as well as antioxidants, polyphenols, iron and more.
