Olive Oil People

Healthy Olivo Olive Oils from New Zealand - We aim to be a trusted, independent provider of the finest New Zealand olive oil in Singapore while promoting healthier dietary choices to discerning customers.

We are small-lot olive farmers in New Zealand:

Since 2015, we have been farming in the small wine producing village of Martinborough in the Wairarapa region of New Zealand. Its microclimate of warm summer days and cool evenings is ideal for producing exceptional Pinot Noir and other great wines and our olive grove are right there amongst these vineyards. Our 1.85 hectare grove is home to 380 producing trees made up of 3 cultivars: Barnea, Manzanillo and Frantoio.

Passion for education:

It is our belief that educating consumers through exploration and discovery of olive oil will help them in developing an appreciation for this ancient food staple. In 2020 we broadened our knowledge and experience in the field of professional olive oil tasting through formal olive oil education with the Escuela (School) Superior Del Aceite De Oliva (of Olive Oil) in Spain. We bring our newfound time-tested techniques and experiences to our customers through olive oil tasting workshops.

Respect for community:

Being a member of our small village community in Martinborough, we know firsthand the painstaking journey from the olive grove, to press, to bottle with a passion for quality at every step. We named our company Olive Oil People as a tip of the hat, with deep respect and gratitude to the passionate and generous people without whom, we would not be able to enjoy the wondrous benefits of this pure juice of the olive fruit.
