Our journey is rooted in over 20 years of hands-on experience in the South African olive industry. Our founder, Michael, has worked alongside some of the country’s largest olive farms, starting from the ground up and playing an integral role in producing multiple award-winning extra virgin olive oils.
Unlike traditional brands, we do not own a farm. Instead, Michael has spent decades building deep, trusted relationships with independent South African olive growers. We believe that farmers should focus on what they do best: farming.
Our role is to step in to help bridge the gap, collaborating directly with growers to vet, quality-check, and bottle their finest cold-extracted harvests under The Olive Guy label.
South Africa consumes approximately 8 million litres of olive oil every year, yet local agriculture currently produces only around 2 million litres, leaving the balance to be met by imported oils.
Our core mission is to actively bridge that 6-million-litre gap. We are dedicated to building a stronger, more resilient local olive market by shifting consumer demand toward 100% South African-grown olives. The more local extra virgin olive oil we champion together, the more we empower South African farmers to plant new trees, strengthen local agriculture, and crowd out cheap, imported seed-oil blends from supermarket shelves.
Our brand is built on principles that guide every bottle we produce and every relationship we form:
100% Local & Unblended: We stand proudly behind South African agriculture. Our oil is exclusively grown, cold-extracted, and packed locally in light-protecting tins and durable containers. We never import or mix our EVOO with cheap seed oils.
Honesty & Transparency: We tell you what we know, what we do not, and what can be verified. No fake sophistication, no hidden ingredients, and no misleading claims, just honest, pure liquid gold.
Approachable Quality: Good olive oil shouldn’t be intimidating, elitist, or reserved only for special occasions. We make premium, single-origin EVOO that is exceptional enough for gourmet use, yet approachable enough for everyday family kitchens.
Farmer Respect: We deeply value the growers and producers who make our industry possible. By providing a reliable commercial market for their crops, we help ensure that local farming communities thrive.
Education over Expectation: We don’t expect consumers to already know everything about olive oil. We love sharing knowledge, helping everyday home cooks understand how olive oil is grown, extracted, stored, and enjoyed.
When you choose The Olive Guy, you are choosing pure, uncompromised flavor while actively supporting South African farmers and the future of our domestic olive industry.
As the designated official agency for The Olive Guy, we hold exclusive distribution focus across all coastal, winelands, and inland regions of the Western Cape & Eastern Cape. We bridge the gap between world-class South African olive groves and discerning food service venues, gourmet stockists, and home chefs.
