Company Background:
In the land of the Jews, King Solomon and King David placed great importance on the cultivation of olive trees:
King David even had guards watching over the olive groves and warehouses, ensuring the safety of the trees and their precious oil. Seven-branched candelabrum is a golden lamp, which was stationed at the Jewish Temple. Eventually it became a symbol of Judaism, and today is the official symbol of Israel.
Olive Oil called it “liquid gold.” In Israel, athletes ritually rubbed it all over their body. Its mystical glow illuminated history. Olive oil has been more than mere food to the peoples of the Mediterranean: it has been medicinal, magical, an endless source of fascination and wonder and the fountain of great wealth and power. The olive tree, symbol of abundance, glory and peace, and the oil of its fruit has anointed the noblest of heads throughout history. Olive crowns and olive branches, emblems of benediction and purification.
