How Olive Oil Startup Graza Brings In $48 Million A Year








it shouldnt be this expensive at all. I can buy a gallon of extra virgin olive oil in costco for a fraction of the unit price of graza.
no good olive oil comes in plastic – this is a marketing gimmick
I want some!
Trader Joe’s should be selling it, that’s where I shop!
NEVER buy an olive oil in PLASTIC bottle! Such an amateur mistake for the creators.
