Please note, due to a bad olive harvest this year in Palestine, and a surge in demand in the UK, Zaytoun are facing stock shortages of Certified Fairtrade and Organic olive oil. In the meantime, the producer members of the Palestine Fair Trade Association supply chain who are not certified, are keen to maintain the export market for Palestinian olive oil and the crucial link established for more than 15 years with UK customers.
You can find the non-certified, fairly traded alternative here.
