Our Story

The story of our olive oil begins under the Greek sun, on the ancient mountain slopes and olive groves of the Peloponnese. A place where centuries-old traditions go hand in hand with organic farming methods.

Behind OILI, you'll find us, three cousins: Hellu, Anna, and Juuso. We combined our expertise and strengths out of a love for good food and Greece. For us, this isn't just a business; it's our shared journey and a tribute to the memory of our grandmother, who loved Greece: to appreciate authentic, original, and honest food. Every bottle of OILI oil tells a story of friendship, family roots, and trust, and especially a desire to share something genuinely meaningful, healthy, and authentic with Finnish homes.

We know our products because we work seamlessly and directly with local family farms, without intermediaries.

For a long time, we have had the privilege of buying oil directly from Greek producers who have become our friends over time. Once you get used to proper, freshly pressed olive oil, and its nuanced taste and aroma, you won't settle for less. Good olive oil is not only the foundation of Greek cuisine but also a source of health. Greeks even call their oil medicine, and for good reason.

Local small producers are proud of the products from their family farms, and oil is their national treasure. That's why they are very happy to sell their products and their stories directly to us Finns, instead of the oil being processed in the amorphous chains of large operators, far from its original flavor profile. It is a great pleasure and honor to collaborate with them.

Over the years, we have also noticed that more and more Finns appreciate these things in their kitchens: authentic, original, unprocessed food and oil that brings flavor and meaning to cooking. That's why we feel it's important and valuable to share this oil with other Finns, exactly as it is, honest, transparent, and produced with love.

Every drop of oil from local small producers is carefully pressed from fresh olives when they are at their best. The result is cold-pressed, unfiltered olive oil that retains all its natural antioxidants, flavor nuances, and nutrients.

We bring the oil to Finland directly from the farmers so that you too can get it as authentic as it should be, straight from the heart of the Greek kitchen.

It's about knowing and appreciating what you eat. In that case, our unfiltered OILI oil is an excellent choice for your kitchen.
