From the Heart of the Mountains, To You.
A story of over 25 years closely tied to Albanian nature and quality.
/ Our Story
Around the 1800s, Ali Pasha Tepelena discovered a rare spring in the heart of the Albanian mountains—a pure and lively water that would lay the foundations of what is today called “Uji i Ftohtë Tepelene.” Since our founding in 1996, we have woven the tradition of this historic spring with modern technology, giving every drop of water a natural finesse.
From a space of 30,000 m², with over 4,000 m² dedicated to modern facilities, to our advanced laboratory where we conduct hundreds of analyses every week, every detail reflects our commitment to quality. We are guided by a clear vision: to bring you the essence of the Albanian mountains in its purest form and to satisfy the taste of every consumer who believes in our roots.
Whether in history or innovation, “Uji i Ftohtë Tepelene” stands at the crossroads of tradition and the courage to move forward—a journey where every sip starts with a drop but carries a whole world of values.

Since 2003, "Uji i Ftohtë Tepelene" has embarked on a new journey beyond Albanian borders, initially exporting to Greece. This step was followed by entry into various markets including Kosovo, North Macedonia, Italy, the UK, Canada, and the United States, thus expanding our presence in some of the world’s largest metropolises.
Over the years, we have strengthened our presence and credibility in international markets, always offering high-quality standards and a unique taste from our Albanian source. Since 2019, we have also been present in Switzerland, further expanding the range of consumers who can enjoy the freshness of Tepelene water.
