Raised in the heart of Provence, France, Antoine Quezel's childhood was deeply entrenched in the rich culinary culture of his parents' market stall, where olives, garlic, and spices were daily fare. A treasure trove of family recipes and techniques, passed down through generations, equipped Antoine with a profound knowledge of Mediterranean flavours.
Upon his 2015 arrival in Australia, confronted by the absence of the Mediterranean essence of his homeland, Antoine launched the Byron Bay Olive Co. at the Bangalow Markets within the Byron Shire, quickly becoming a local sensation.
