The story behind Olivar House

You know, we never planned on starting an olive oil company.

To be honest, we just wanted to get away for a bit.

South Africa. Two motorcycles. Mountains. A little bit of freedom after years of noise.

And then, one afternoon, somewhere in the Swartberg Mountains, someone handed us a spoon. This green-gold oil. Peppery, vibrant, almost buzzing. We looked at each other as if thinking: Seriously, is this olive oil?

In Europe, we couldn't let it go. That taste just stuck. So we thought: okay, let's take it with us.

And now there's a whole team behind me:

an olive oil nerd who knows every detail.
a salesperson who can open doors anywhere.
and a logistical marvel that actually brings the oil from the orchards in Africa to your kitchen.

We work with De Rustica and Willow Creek, two South African producers who not only grow olives but also take good care of the land, support their people, and win awards from Madrid to Tokyo as if it were nothing.

So yes, that's us. Olivar House. Real olive oil. Fresh, honest, and vibrant. Straight from the edge of Africa to your table.
