A colleague and myself both live and farm in Catalonia.He produces olive oil and I grow saffron.We both also grow almonds and carobs. We are looking at approaching farmers markets in the UK and selling our produce there.Does anyone have any contacts or pointers in that or any other area that may be of interest to ourselves.

What kind and type of olive oil and saffaron you produce please? Do you have a website / catalouge or do you export or sell to any famouse store ?

On an honest note, how would you compare the quality of your olive oil to any good brand one in the market?

I am an Indian living in London and was always wanting to look into this business and try exporting olive oil in India.

Please let me know you views.

Dear Mitch,

I hope you are well.

We have been working with producers of Olive Oil for a while. I am sure if the price is right we can find a market for you.

As regards to other products, our organisation is also heavily involved in the Almond market. As I am sure you know the harvest of USA Almond was not especially great, quantities are ok but the sizes are small. We now have heavy demand for Almonds.

I would be keen to speak with you properly either via skype or on the telephone.

Best

Syam

We only grow a small amount of saffron,ideal for farmers market sales but nowhere near the amount compared to Iran etc.
What sort of quantities would you be looking for and what pressing of the oil ie,extra virgin,virgin.....The oil around here is,(as all people would say) is one of the best.It's that good we have Italian tankers filling up,returning Italy and...well you know the rest.Would you be looking at bulk or individual bottles.I can get 1 litre bottles,boxed and presented,5 litre drums upward
If you give the details,I'll get back to you.I have contacts at several mills and own farm producers.

Hi Mitch,

Many thanks for getting back. To be honest as of now I have just a thought of selling olive oil to India and in its very first stage. What is the difference between mill and farm producers, which one would you recommend in terms of good price and quality. Have you exported olive oil and saffaron to any other country?

Every time I go backs home I take spanish saffaron for my family. The name of company is H E Abad & Co. Novelda Spain.

Is it okey for me to PM you and I can discuss further please pricing etc with you.

Thanks and Regards,
Darshan
