Zaytoun’s Extra Virgin Olive Oil is steeped in history, but it has broken new ground as the world’s first Fairtrade-certified olive oil. Every drop of this exquisite golden treasure carries a warm, peppery taste that’s perfect for drizzling over salads or dipping crusty bread into. Zaytoun source the olives themselves from ancient groves on the Palestinian West Bank, where countless generations of small-scale farmers have tended the trees. The organic olives are rain-fed and hand-picked by the families that have owned the groves for centuries, using traditional techniques and the utmost care for their crops. Zaytoun champions these independent farmers by paying them a fairer wage which can be almost double the usual price, bringing the fruits of their labour to the rest of the world in the process. Help support Fairtrade’s efforts and add a bottle of this ethical oil to your next delivery.

Producer

Zaytoun show that hard work and delicious food can change lives. This social enterprise was founded in 2004 to support resilient Palestinian famers, putting up payment before even the first bottles of olive oil left the groves. Hundreds of happy customers and many years later, Zaytoun’s range has grown, becoming the first to bring a Fairtrade olive oil to UK shores in the process. Their dedication to the artisanal craft of Palestinian food celebrates its makers, and Zaytoun even lead yearly trips to meet these skilled growers and makers. There’s no better proof that food brings people together than that.
