My name is Martin, and I'm the founder of Selo Olive Oil. Family owned and operated since 2017, our roots run deep in Croatia. Selo isn't just a product to us, it's a way of life. Our family has been farming and producing exceptional olive oil for three generations, with our roots tracing back to almond farmers in the countryside around Zadar. As our love for Croatian cuisine grew, we found ourselves drawn to the picturesque coastal town of Biograd na Moru, where we grew olive trees and dedicated ourselves to the art of producing the finest olive oil.

 

My journey to the world of olive oil was a winding one. Though I grew up in Canada, the rich heritage of my Croatian family always held a special place in my heart. For years, I worked as a software developer, creating and innovating in the digital realm. But there was a longing within me, a desire to reconnect with my roots and to honor the traditions of my ancestors. It was this calling that ultimately led me to return to Croatia and take the helm of the family business, bringing Selo Olive Oil to life.

 Today, we take immense pride in sharing the flavors and aromas of our premium Croatian olive oil with families around the world. Our commitment to authenticity and quality is unparalleled, with every olive hand-picked and every bottle of oil crafted with the utmost care to create the perfect product.

 We are passionate about bringing people together through food and creating memories that will last a lifetime. That's why we are dedicated to crafting an exceptional olive oil that families can enjoy together, inspired by the simplistic warmth and hospitality that Croatia is known for.

We are committed to using only the finest ingredients sourced from Croatia and to upholding the highest standards of quality in every aspect of our business. In everything we do, we are driven by our commitment to providing families with the very best in Croatian cuisine, and to sharing our love for olive oil with the world.

Živili!
