Olive Kingdom

Our story

From the heart of Aleppo — where soapmaking was born two thousand years ago — our story began when the Kadah family inherited the craft by hand, reaching the Netherlands with a new generation.

Rami Kadah, founder of Olive Kingdom

“For over 30 years, I have continued the work my grandfather began. It is a craft that has been part of my hometown, Aleppo, for more than 2,000 years and has been passed down from one generation to the next. Today, we remain committed to that tradition by producing authentic Aleppo soap with the same care and methods, while also making sure it meets modern quality standards.”

— Rami Kadah, Founder

From grandfather to grandchildren

For our grandfather the craft was never a trade to master and leave — it was an identity to keep and pass on. Thirty years of handwork later, what began as a small workshop in Aleppo now reaches from the Levant to the Netherlands, with the same patience and the same hands.

From the tree to the hand

Aleppo soapmaking is a full seasonal journey: pressing pure olive oil, boiling the laurel, cutting the green blocks, and resting them for months until the bar matures and completes.
