Our story begins many years ago, when our ancestors migrated from Crimea and settled on the vast lands of Central Anatolia, in the fertile plains of Ayrancı, Karaman. That's why this land is not just a place of production for us — it's an essential and irreplaceable part of our spiritual heritage.
Our story begins many years ago, when our ancestors migrated from Crimea and settled on the vast lands of Central Anatolia, in the fertile plains of Ayrancı, Karaman. That's why this land is not just a place of production for us — it's an essential and irreplaceable part of our spiritual heritage.
For the past 15 years, together with my family, we have been keeping this legacy alive, farming and producing food in our region, using only traditional methods and growing fruits and vegetables in their natural seasons, just as nature intended.
The da Berendi brand was born when my husband and I moved to Italy — marking the beginning of a new chapter in our journey. The name comes from Berendi, a small, remote village of about 50 households nestled in the foothills of the Toros Mountains in Turkey, where we also have production roots. The name Berendi has long symbolized our quiet dream of Europe.
After moving to Italy, inspired by my husband's idea, we added an Italian touch — da, meaning "from" — to create da Berendi, a name that reflects both our Turkish origins and our new story in Italy.
da Berendi is a brand that draws strength from its roots, bridges two cultures, and stays true to its natural essence. Today, under the da Berendi name, we bring the purest and most authentic flavors of Turkey to tables across Europe, staying faithful to our heritage and our land. And we firmly believe that journeys nourished by strong roots are the ones that give birth to the most beautiful stories.
