Clodia Verified listing

Ibrahim Pekmez opened his eyes on February 10, 1978, in a house surrounded by centuries-old olive trees in Samandağ, Hatay. The joy of his first harvest permeated his soul with the scent of the earth from the family's heirloom olive groves; for him, the olive became the most vivid witness to purity and trust.

Growing up with this legacy, Pekmez channeled her passion for health into an academic path: she completed her medical studies at Ege University Faculty of Medicine and her specialization in Child Health and Diseases at Gaziantep University.

In 2009, her travels led her to Mut, the capital of the EU-registered olive heritage. While working at Mut State Hospital, she fell in love again with this unique geography of the Taurus Mountains — the pure scent of olives from her childhood memories blossomed again here with the scientific vision of a physician. It was here that the seeds of Clodia were sown.

Because it knew that the biggest missing piece in the world of extra virgin olive oil was "absolute trust." Against the counterfeit and adulterated practices in the sector, Clodia became the first and only brand in Turkey to implement a blockchain-based dynamic QR verification system for olive oil .

Today, when you pick up a bottle of Clodia and scan the uncopyable smart QR code on it, you'll encounter, for the first time in Türkiye, the immutable digital product passport of olive oil: every detail, from the moment of harvest to the laboratory analysis report, is instantly before you on the blockchain network.
