Mresco Turkey,<br />
which is the name<br />
of the organization<br />
in Turkey of<br />
Murabahat<br />
Investment, one of<br />
the largest groups<br />
of Kuwait, entered<br />
into the olive<br />
sector. Hence,<br />
the company<br />
began to produce<br />
olive oil with the<br />
Olivoyage brand.<br />
Oya Zingal<br />
locally. Hence, she chose Geyikli as the<br />
most suitable region in terms of environmental<br />
conditions, logistics facilities,<br />
and most importantly the quality and<br />
excellence of olives.<br />
The company started to operate in<br />
2016 firstly with the olive groves that<br />
it bought. Stating that the production<br />
was not fruitful for the first year since<br />
the area that was newly bought was<br />
neglected before, Zingal emphasizes<br />
that the excellence of the product<br />
and the compliments from domestic<br />
and foreign countries reveal that this<br />
investment would produce effective<br />
results.<br />
Zingal states, “What we achieved in<br />
short time is just the beginning of our<br />
olive journey, just like in our brand –<br />
OLIVOYAGE” and emphasizes that<br />
they are targeting to establish an olive<br />
oil pressing strategy as well as a sampling<br />
facility where to taste olive oil<br />
dishes. In the following years, the company<br />
aims to make this region one of<br />
the world’s leading regions in olive<br />
and olive oil together agro-tourism<br />
facilities and an olive-farming academy.<br />
Oya Zingal is as excited about this<br />
investment as she is ambitious. She<br />
emphasizes this enthusiasm stating,<br />
“My objective is to direct all my efforts<br />
here in this region as I will end<br />
my journey of life here”.<br />
