A Dream Rooted in the Aegean
Tulivya was founded from a dream of sharing the value of the land where I was born with the world. Aydın, located in western Türkiye near the Aegean coast, is one of the country's most established olive-growing regions. As a woman entrepreneur raised in Aydın, I see the olive as more than a product. To me, it represents the culture, labor, and heritage of this region, passed down through generations.
Tulivya's story was born from my connection to my roots and my desire to reveal the true character of Memecik olives grown in Aydın. Aydın Memecik Olives and Aydın Memecik Olive Oil are both registered geographical indications in Türkiye and the European Union, representing two parts of this valuable regional heritage.
Quality Comes First
Tulivya has never aimed to become the brand with the largest production volume or the widest product range. For us, growth means improving with every harvest before it means producing more.
That is why we produce in limited quantities, paying close attention to every detail from the olive variety and harvest timing to extraction temperature, filtration, and storage conditions. Even our bottle size is chosen to help the oil retain its freshness and be enjoyed within an appropriate period after opening.
Research, Tasting, and Continuous Improvement
We see every harvest not simply as another production season, but as a new opportunity to build upon what we have learned.
Through laboratory analysis, professional sensory evaluation, and ongoing research, we aim to express the distinctive aromas and character of the Memecik olive at their very best.
We combine our young and dynamic approach with a deep connection to the land, scientific precision, and a passion for continuous improvement.
