Kevin and Melitza Lugo have a deep love for Israel. So deep that they put “their money where their heart is” and started Kemel Inc. Equipment Sales & Imports in 2019 to become distributors for Olea Essence From the Sea of Galilee, an Israeli company that makes olive oil products and gourmet products to women’s and men’s skincare products.

One of Olea Essence’s best selling products is its olive oils that come in various flavors. All of the products are plant based and 100 percent natural.

“We can ship Olea Essence products from here to Puerto Rico, all Central and South America and Virgin Islands,” said Kevin.

In addition to the Olea Essence lines they distribute, Kemel Inc. also sells restaurant equipment, including commercial coffee roasters, espresso machines and grinders. Certified Executive Chef Kevin and his wife, Melitza, are the owners of Mannah Inc., a food preparation and catering service here in Orlando. Their catering business has been thriving since 2012. He knows the food industry. He knows what foods to buy to make the best gourmet meals, and he knows what professional appliances work best for a food business. Expanding his business ventures to include Israeli products is a good fit for Kemel Inc.
