The South Australia olive industry is devastated at the news that industry stalwart Vince Scarfo has been lost at sea while fishing with his brother-in-law, Luigi Polombo. An olive grower and owner of the award-winning Diana Olive Oil brand, Scarfo also ran both the OLEAPAC bottling service and the leading processing facility in the Fleurieu Peninsula region, and was winner of the Olives SA Best Processor Award in 2013. His loss is a major blow to the industry and Olives SA is organising a volunteer roster to assist the Scarfo family in continuing Vince’s outstanding work during the coming harvest season. Anyone wanting to offer their support can contact Olives SA president Chris Tankey via tankeychris@gmail.com or mob: 0421 097 169. The Ryan Media team joins the industry in offering its sincere condolences to the Scarfo family.
