In the tree nut family, the walnut is alone. All others are silent on omega-3. The nut concentrates them to a level that science has confirmed for decades.

Moroccan walnut surface

Two direct origins. Atlas & China.

The two origins complement each other: Atlas for exceptional ALA profiles and cooperative traceability; China for volume, varietal diversity and logistical security. Folk Oils allows you to source one, the other, or both from a single direct contact.

MOROCCAN ATLAS

Mountain cooperatives

High and Middle Atlas Valleys, Béni Mellal, Azilal, Khenifra. ALA among the highest in North Africa. Strong narrative terroir for premium formulations.

DIRECT COOPERATIVES · CERTIFIED ALTITUDE

Small farmers · guaranteed volume

Leading world producer, Yunnan, Xinjiang, Sichuan, Hebei. Small farmers listed without intermediary exporters. Continuity of annual supply.

REFERENCED SMALL FARMERS · VOLUME

OXIDATIVE STABILITY · POINT OF ATTENTION

A fragile oil. All the more reason to source from the source.

Richness in polyunsaturates = requirement for impeccable extraction, storage and transport.

Value chain

From raw material to your B2B batch

Four typical steps for our cold-pressed virgin oils in Morocco: sourcing from identified partners, preparation and control, mechanical extraction without solvent, then direct export with CoA and traceability on request.

Morocco · direct sourcing · pressing Folk Oils

Step 01 Partner farmers · contracts

Sourcing at source

Raw material purchased directly from identified producers, without a broker: simpler upstream traceability, fairer prices, quality better preserved all the way to the press.

Intermediaries 0
Step 02 Control · homogeneity

Preparation and sorting before pressing

Reception, visual checks and preparation: only compliant materials go to the pressing line. This is the first quality lock before your batch.

Control Batch to batch
Step 03 Folk Oils, press

First cold mechanical pressing

Gentle mechanical extraction, without extraction solvent, at controlled temperature to preserve fatty acids, tocopherols and sterols useful for your formulations.

Solvent 0%
Step 04 B2B export · logistics

International packaging and delivery

From our unit to your site: industrial packaging (IBC, drums, custom-made), export documents and execution monitoring, without opaque chain.
