Studies suggest that the Hazelnut seems to have been domesticated independently in three areas: the Mediterranean, Turkey, and Iran. Although very few countries in the world have a climate as favorable for hazelnut production as that of Turkey.

Historic documents reveal that hazelnuts have been grown along the Black Sea coast in northern Turkey since 300 BC Hazelnut farming has been the chief form of livelihood in the region for centuries and it still is.
