INSPIRATION FROM A TIN CAN





When Tariş, one of Turkey’s most deep-rooted olive oil producers, asked us to merge its cultural history with its corporate image, we found inspiration right at the heart of the people. A famous sight seen on balconies and doorsteps across Turkey guided us: Tariş olive oil tins repurposed as flower pots. Those tins, where people sowed seeds and nurtured them with love, told the story of a brand that isn’t just a kitchen product, but a member of the household.
The olive sapling and the olive itself are sacred legacies passed down from grandmothers to grandchildren in these lands. In our project, we focused on the fact that Tariş has been an indispensable part of tables, used with confidence for generations. We crafted our story as a tale of trust, with roots running deep and branches reaching toward the future. By blending the nostalgic value of Tariş’s past with today’s modern health and quality standards, we positioned the brand as a bridge between “living memories” and “future legacies.”
We conducted our shoot in one of those traditional village stone houses that we are all familiar with from our childhoods, where our grandmothers still live. The natural texture of the space provided a perfect harmony with the brand’s sincerity and naturalness. Accompanied by meticulously prepared compositions, we photographed Tariş tins in that warm atmosphere, weaving the concepts of trust, health, and continuity into every frame.
This successful campaign resonated widely across both print media and social platforms, redefining Tariş’s corporate identity. The headline “From Living Memories to Future Legacies” sealed the fact that the brand is not merely a piece of nostalgia from the past, but also a guarantee of a healthy future. As SALT Creative, we took pride in transforming the love contained within a brand’s tin can into a professional communication strategy.
“We didn’t just prepare an advertisement for Tariş; we took one of the most sincere habits of these lands—a tin can turned into a flower pot—and transformed it into a brand vision. For us, this project was the echo of the people’s unconditional trust in the brand within the creative world.”
