After more than a decade in corporate America, always on the go, our founder, Farris Nawas, found himself frustrated by the lack of truly satisfying snacks. As a lifelong olive lover, he couldn’t find anything that matched the rich, flavorful olives he grew up eating in Jordan—especially the ones his grandma made, filled with love and tradition.

That’s when the idea for Teta’s Olives was born. Determined to bring the authentic flavors of his childhood to the world, Farris teamed up with local farmers in Jordan. Using his grandma Eveleen’s cherished recipes, he created a snack that delivers bold, delicious flavor with every bite. The result? Perfectly marinated olives, beautifully packaged for a convenient, mess-free experience—wherever life takes you.

Teta’s Olives is the first Middle Eastern olive snack company of its kind, combining heritage and innovation to share a taste of home while honoring generations of tradition.

Our olives begin with the Nabali variety, handpicked from ancient groves along the Jordan River. This region is known for its rich history of olive cultivation, and these olives are a true testament to natural goodness. Packed with flavor and steeped in tradition, they’re more than just a snack—they’re a piece of history.

"Teta" means grandma in Arabic, and at Teta’s Olives, every snack is a tribute to Grandma Eveleen. Her generations-old recipes are at the heart of what we do. Each olive is made with the same care and love that grandmas pour into their food, delivering an authentic taste of home in every bite.

With only 30 calories per serving and zero net carbs, Teta’s Olives are perfect for keto, paleo, gluten-free, and vegan lifestyles. Free from artificial additives and preservatives, our olives provide pure, wholesome nourishment—just as nature intended.
