Beyond retail, Grovestone franchises enjoy multiple revenue streams. From in-store tastings and cooking demos to private events, wine pairings, and cookie decorating classes, our business model gives you creative ways to connect with your community and boost cash flow.
Since 2015, our flagship store in Champaign, Illinois, has become a beloved local staple. With years of experience and refined systems, we’ve created a streamlined, scalable retail model ready for national expansion.

Founded by Loui Liagridonis, Grovestone’s passion for olive oil spans generations. Loui’s family has been producing high-grade extra virgin olive oil in Greece’s Peloponnese region for decades. This legacy of craftsmanship and authenticity defines our brand. Each Grovestone product reflects this deep-rooted connection to culture and quality—a passion now shared with customers across the U.S.
