Joe Profaci - The Olive Oil King | Colombo Family Boss for 30 Years | American Mafia History

Please subscribe to our new channel: @RichieRichStories Tonight’s mobster is Joe Profaci, also known as the Olive Oil King. Profaci ruled the Colombo crime family from the late 1920s until his death in 1962. He built his fortune through legitimate businesses—most famously his Mamma Mia olive oil importing company—while quietly extending his underworld influence. Profaci maintained a strict, old-world style of leadership, demanding tributes from his men and enforcing loyalty with iron discipline. He was closely allied with Joseph Magliocco and maintained working ties with bosses like Carlo Gambino and Joe Bonanno. Despite his devout Catholic image and philanthropy, his men grew resentful of the “Profaci tax,” sparking the first Colombo family war. His ability to balance churchgoing respectability with ruthless racketeering kept him in power for more than three decades, until cancer ended his reign in 1962.
