At TEIKEI Olive, the project does not end with the harvest.
A central part of the shared responsibility also lies in the question of how the olive oil is transported, distributed, and bottled.
Logistics is not merely understood as a technical process but as part of the overall ecological and social responsibility.
After harvesting and bottling in Greece, the olive oil is prepared for further transport. It is then transported via existing routes to Central Europe and from there distributed to smaller regional structures.
This currently includes, among other things:
A special element of TEIKEI Olive is the idea of bottling as close as possible to the recipient communities.
There are several reasons for this:
This results in bottling events where distribution is not the only focus—community is also experienced in a practical way.
For years, TEIKEI Olive has been exploring how transport can be made less fossil-dependent and more responsible. In this context, sailboat transport plays an important role.
Transport by cargo sailing ship symbolizes the attempt to rethink trade routes and take ecological responsibility seriously—not just in cultivation but also in the movement of goods.
This is not just about a single mode of transport but about a fundamental question:
How can a value chain be designed to generate fewer emissions while also aligning more closely with our own values?
TEIKEI Olive is working on further solutions for lower-emission logistics. These include, among others:
Logistics is therefore not a side issue but a central learning space for the project. Here, it becomes clear how seriously TEIKEI Olive takes its commitment to not only offer good products but to make the entire supply chain more responsible step by step.
