Canaan Palestine is dedicated to artisan quality olive oil and other products. A social entrepreneurship firm, Canaan is based in Jenin, Palestine. Canaan sources agricultural food products from a network of 49 cooperatives organized in the Palestine Fair Trade Association with membership numbering more than 1,700 farm families. Canaan products are certified fair trade; most are USDA organic and can be found at specialty and organic shops across the USA and Europe. Canaan's olives and olive oil are highly prized and valued for the wide impact they have on producers’ communities through fair trade practices.

Canaan-USA is a sister company of Canaan Palestine staffed by dedicated professionals with extensive experience and committed to serving Palestinian farmers. We distribute Canaan branded products in the USA. We sell to community organizations, food coops, and gourmet and specialty stores. 

Canaan-USA distributes from a warehouse in Monroe Township, New Jersey. We sell by the case from our retail web shop, wholesale and through regional distributors to stores and coops. Our interfaith program provides sales through community organizations.
