About Us

Zaitoon Pakistan began its journey in 2003, entering the imported food market in Pakistan. After bringing the renowned Borges Olive Oil brand from Spain, we worked tirelessly to introduce and promote the benefits of olive oil in a market that had little awareness of it. Today, Borges stands as the leading olive oil brand in Pakistan.

BORGES EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

Borges Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the premium quality olive oil and is obtained from cold pressing of olives cultivated under the Mediterranean sun,
with all their original taste and aroma.

Borges Extra Virgin Olive Oil has a low acidity level of 0.5%, which means that it has an acceptable taste, without compromising on the quality. It is recommended for cooking, dressing and oral intake.

BORGES EXTRA LIGHT OLIVE OIL

Borges Extra Light Olive Oil is composed of Refined Olive Oils and Extra Virgin Olive Oils. It is mild in taste, color and aroma, and carries the same health benefits as Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

This product is specially designed for taste conscious markets as Pakistan, because the consumers are used to cooking in palm and other oils. So cooking in Extra Light Olive Oil doesn’t give the taste, aroma and color, which is hallmark of foods cooked in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It is recommended for high temperature cooking, frying, baking and sweet dishes.

OLIVE POMACE OIL

Pomace Oil is obtained from the residue of already contracted Olives using certain chemicals, so we can safely say that it is the last extraction of Olives. This product is of the most inferior quality, among olive oils.

Pomace oil doesn’t nearly give the same health benefits as Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Extra Light Olive Oil, but still it is beneficial than palm oil because it has some quantity of low quality olive oil. It may be used in frying

SUNFLOWER OIL

Sunflower seed oil is edible oil obtained from sunflower plant. Some varieties contain up to 45% oil. The extraction of sunflower seed oil is carried out by pressing the seeds.
