For thousands of years, olive oil had been prominent in all the greatest civilizations that have prospered in Tunisia. Indeed, the olive tree have been cultivated by Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans and Arabs, in a tradition that has been passed down from father to son ever since.

Tunisia is the most important olive-growing country of the southern Mediterranean region; over 30% of its cultivated land is dedicated to olive growing (1.68 million ha).

The olive fruit is closely linked to the traditions of Mediterranean populations. It has been cultivated for 4500 years in the eastern part of the Mediterranean basin.

The standards issued by the IOC (International Olive Council) define the various categories of olive oil.

Tunisian Organic olive oil is a high quality product certified by recognized international organizations that verify the compliance and application of the ORGANIC regulation during the production process.
