Let’s Make Something Amazing!
At Olive Wood Pizza, we believe food is only as exceptional as the ingredients behind it.
That’s why we partner with passionate producers, farmers, and artisans who share our obsession with quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship.
Our vendors aren’t suppliers — they’re collaborators, experts, and friends who shape the flavor, character, and soul of our food.
Our Philosophy
Ingredients With Purpose. Partnerships With Heart.
We go beyond farm-to-table.
We build relationships with people who respect the earth, honor tradition, and treat quality as a non-negotiable.
We choose ingredients based on:
Exceptional flavor
Ethical and sustainable practices
Local relationships and transparency
Heritage, craftsmanship, and expertise
The result is food that tastes better — because it comes from people who care.
Firewood of My Ranch (Compton)
Sustainably harvested olive wood that fuels our ovens — and defines who we are
We exclusively burn olive wood, not “mixed firewood,” because it:
Burns hot, clean, and fragrant
Produces a crisp, blistered crust
Adds aromatic depth without bitterness
Reflects tradition and craft
Our wood isn’t a commodity —
it’s a signature ingredient in every pizza we create.
Stanislaus Tomatoes (Modesto, CA)
America’s premier producer of fresh-pack, Italian-style tomato products, rooted in three generations of family stewardship
We use Stanislaus tomatoes as the foundation of our pizza sauces — prized for their bright, fresh flavor, natural sweetness, and perfectly balanced acidity.
Why we love them:
Family-owned and operated for more than 80 years
Fresh-pack tomatoes, never from concentrate
Harvested and canned within hours for peak flavor
Partnered exclusively with top California growers
Consistent, high-integrity product from can to can
Their fresh-packed tomatoes deliver superior depth, aroma, and color — essential for wood-fired pizza where quality is immediately tasted.
Stanislaus gives us clean, vibrant sauces that hold up to high heat and high volume, ensuring every pizza has the unmistakable “fresh tomato” flavor our guests love.
Marisa Foods (Long Beach, CA)
Premium Italian-style meats and toppings from a family-owned producer with nearly 80 years of culinary heritage
We source pepperoni, Italian sausage, salumi, and specialty toppings from Marisa Foods — a Southern California producer known for classic Italian flavor, consistent quality, and meticulous standards.
Why we love them:
Family-owned and operated since 1947
Recipes rooted in traditional Italian delicatessen culture
USDA-inspected, HACCP-certified production
High-quality cuts, spices, and clean flavor profiles

California Produce & Local Partners
Supporting local farms whenever possible
Seasonally, we incorporate:
Farm-fresh vegetables
Locally grown herbs
Citrus, fruits, and specialty items
Why it matters:
Fresher flavor
Lower environmental impact
Support for regional growers
Great food begins with great sourcing — and we’re proud to invest in our community.
Grande Cheese Company
Exceptional cheese starts with exceptional milk.
We use Grande cheeses because the quality of every ingredient matters to the finished pizza. Grande sources its milk from dedicated family dairy farms and maintains exceptionally high standards for milk quality, animal welfare, freshness and consistency.
Their cheeses begin with just four core ingredients: milk, salt, enzymes and proprietary cultures—without anti-caking agents such as potato starch or cellulose, artificial whiteners or unnecessary additives.
Grande’s dedicated dairy farms are located within 50 miles of its production facilities, allowing milk to move from farm to cheese production within 24 hours.
But ultimately, our decision was made the same way we make every ingredient decision at Olive Wood Pizza: we tasted it.
We chose Grande because we believe it delivers the flavor, texture, consistency and performance we want on every pizza we serve.
Why we love them:
Exceptional milk quality from local family dairy farms
Simple, natural ingredients without unnecessary additives
Outstanding melt, stretch, browning and flavor
Remarkable consistency from pizza to pizza and event to event
Trusted by many of America’s finest independent pizzerias
Today, 100% of our pizza cheese program comes from Grande Cheese Company, including our whole milk mozzarella, fresh mozzarella, Parmesan, Romano and specialty cheeses.
