Moving Forward with Confidence in Line with Our Vision

Our leadership in the olive and olive oil sector — one of Turkey’s most important agricultural assets — continues to grow stronger. Each year, we achieve valuable returns both for our country and our company, becoming a more strategic and prominent player on the global stage. Every investment we make is aligned with this goal: our vision is to elevate our country to the top of global exports in the sector and to enhance our brand value.

Over the past five years, we have established some of the world’s most modern and technologically advanced facilities, which also stand out with their high production capacities. With our production facilities located in various olive-growing regions across Turkey, we are proud to be the only company in the world that has achieved full vertical integration in every aspect of the industry. In the Torbalı region, where our central integrated facilities are based, production has begun at our modern bottling and packaging facility. With its additional units, a fully robotic and automated production line is being implemented. These facilities are a fitting representation of our company and our country, with products proudly labeled “Product of Türkiye” being sold across six continents. In addition to our existing International Olive Oil Council (IOOC)-accredited laboratory, we are also laying the foundations for a fully equipped R&D building.

Although Turkey has made significant strides in olive production in recent years, further increasing output is essential to remain competitive globally. Strong branding must be supported by strong production. In this context, our investments in olive groves continue. We are also carrying out land rehabilitation projects to implement modern agricultural technologies and take pride in transforming marginal lands into fertile grounds for olive cultivation.

We are aware of the value of our sector and the importance of our role within it. We carefully consider every decision, setting an example through the establishment of state-of-the-art facilities and model olive groves. Every step we take is backed by thorough planning and the work of dedicated professionals. The increasing strategic value and market share of our company worldwide is a clear indicator of the soundness of these efforts.

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who has supported and guided us in achieving these successes — especially our state officials, related ministries, farmers, workers, valued team members, solution partners, industry stakeholders, and all those who have contributed.

“Our vision is to elevate our country to the top of global exports in the sector and to enhance our brand value.”
