The competition was organized by the olive oil bar of BioFach where tasting is done by connoisseurs and experts from the olive oil industry.

This, for Canaan and the Palestine Fair Trade Association, is a significant achievement especially that this olive oil is coming from small scaled farmers of Palestine, living in a conflict zone, and facing multiple challenges.

This a real pride for our farmers, and a pride for Canaan to work with these farmers.Dr. Nasser AbuFarha, Director of Canaan Fair Trade and Founder of Palestine Fair Trade Association.
