Our
aim is to see Turkish olive oil take its' fair place among the leading brands in
the US retail olive oil market.

| Our
Company- leading the way for "Fair Trade" products from Turkey |
| Since 1997 we have been
laying a foundation to supply gourmet olive oil from Turkey to the
US by following principles above-and-beyond the principles of "fair trade."
We are in partnership with a group of
international companies that have been supplying healthy food
products since 1892. As part of this
group of companies we have offices in Asia, North & South America
and do business in 80
nations. With a very short supply chain, we bring food to your table
through some of the largest
retail grocery and food service companies in the US. We
also have strategic partnerships with olive growers and olive oil
crushing plants through our network of producers. The
founders of our Turkish office are from the US and have been living in Turkey
since 1997. So we
understand the mindset and needs of our North American customers
and our Turkish suppliers. In our best season we supplied over 20% of the bottled Turkish extra
virgin olive oil to the US market.
Our products have been sold in 7,000 points of sale in 30 US states.

Olive Oil - single-origin with a light, fruity taste
profile
|
| Our single-origin extra
virgin olive oil has a fruity, light flavor that is specially suited
for the US market. It does not have so much of the bitter after taste you find
in some oils. This due to the the varieties of olives, sandy soil,
glorious climate conditions and careful processing. Our olives are
hand picked and then brought to collection stations by the growers
and harvesters. The best olives are selected and crushed. Our olive oil comes from just one
origin, from Turkey. Unlike many, we do not blend olive oil from
several nations, nor do we mix in, nor do we try to hide the real
origins by deceptive labeling. The soil that is now belongs to the nation of Turkey is actually the original home of the olive
tree. Some of our olive oil comes from trees that have been bearing
fruit for a 1,000 years! A few miles from our office are the remnants
of perhaps the oldest known olive oil factory. 2,500 years ago olive oil
was being produced on here on the Mediterranean coast (Aegean Sea).
