About Ancient Greens

Ancient Greens is an agricultural initiative established at the Teofarm farm in Antakya, rooted in heirloom seeds and traditional farming methods. Since early 2021, in response to increasing production demands, operations have continued in Sazgın Village, Gaziantep, with expanded capacity.

The brand operates through a vertically integrated production system that encompasses every stage—from R&D to packaging, from storage to distribution—all under one roof. Ancient Greens stands out with its eco-conscious production philosophy, zero-waste approach, and strong commitment to minimizing its carbon footprint.

As a purpose-driven social enterprise, Ancient Greens actively supports women’s employment and promotes female participation across all stages of the production process. With its natural, functional products designed to support healthy living, the brand aims to achieve sustainable growth in both local and global markets.
