We established “Morlea” brand in İzmir as a team of one engineer and one architect who has worked in various national and international companies for many years.
We did not have olive groves or a background in olive oil business.
So, what was the reason that brought us together with olive oil?
It all started by looking for ways to have a healthy diet, the importance of which we have understood better in recent days. Undoubtedly, one of the first to come across on this road was olive oil.
How should a high-quality oil be?
Did the things we consume until today comply with the quality standards?
We started to read. And as we read about the miracles of olive oil on our life quality, this turned into a passion for us.
For two years, we devoted ourselves solely to literature review and various trainings.
We traveled a lot to find the right manufacturer and to benefit from their valuable information.
As the result of our studies, we not only learned how to obtain high quality olive oil but also saw that Turkey is not where it deserves in the World although it is an important olive oil producer.
We started to enjoy this business very much and decided to do something considering our past experience in international platforms.
As Morlea, we search for best olives. We collect, squeeze and preserve them with the right methods by following all the stages one by one, with discipline, effort, love and care.
Our aim is to play a role in raising healthy generations by increasing the consumption of olive oil in the domestic market which we produce under the best conditions and to increase the awareness and prestige of Turkish olive oil abroad by introducing our oil to the whole world with our brand name!
We continue to work with great determination, excitement and joy every day to achieve our goal successfully.
