Olive & Olive Derivatives Market

To get key market trends

  • Increasing awareness about health, increasing popularity of mediterranean diets and innovations in food processing have driven the growth of the global olive oil and associated oils market over the last decade.
  • Olive oil is now more widely recognized for its health benefits, particularly extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO), because of its high levels of polyphenols (antioxidants) and fatty acids that are fundamental to good nutrition. Increasingly, due to scientific research supporting the health benefits of eating olives and their oil, consumers all over the world are preferring to consume EVOO as a major part of their diet.
  • As consumers become more aware of plant-based products with "clean label" attributes and product fortifications, business opportunities have emerged for companies producing derivative products from olives. Innovation in food manufacturing and preparing goods for commercial sale is another factor that is helping to fuel growth in the olive oil and olive oil derivative markets, as advanced extraction techniques, solid-liquid separation techniques and cold pressing have enabled companies to extract more oil from the same volume of olives, increase the quality of the resulting oil, and reduce waste associated with the production of olive oil.
  • Also enhancing growth in these markets is the growing interest in reducing waste and, in some cases, creating zero-waste pipelines. The result has been the creation of commercial avenues to add value to the by-products produced from the cultivation of olives, including uses in the production of bioplastics and biofuels and incorporate as animal feed. This new trend toward changing how the by-products of olive oil production are valued is also in accordance with the environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals of many companies in this space.
  • Recent changes in the global marketplace indicate that there is a shift in the focus of leading producers (Spain, Italy, Turkey, and Greece) from both backward integration and geographic expansion of their product lines to developing modern agricultural practices (e.g., super high-density [SHD] olive farming; precision irrigation; artificial intelligence for harvest forecasting), which will increase the efficiency of production and reduce input costs, while minimizing the impact of climate-related disruptions on the stability of supply chain systems.
  • In addition, consumer behavior is undergoing a fundamental transformation, creating an environment where premium brands and product diversity will increasingly drive the growth of the industry's leading segments. In growing segment markets, boutique olive oil manufacturers have seen some of their niche products see year-over-year increases of 12% to 15% through their e-commerce sales channels. Direct-to-consumer (DTC) platforms for olive oil producers allow them access to international sales, to maintain their margins, and to develop an international brand image.

Olive & Olive Derivatives Market Trends

  • In recent years, traditional regions that produce olive oil (such as Spain, Italy and Greece) are experiencing greater numbers of farmers switching over to precision agriculture and smart farming due to increased desire to improve production efficiency (productivity) as well as to deal with the effects of climate change on their farms. More specifically, this move to greater efficiency of production is due to the use of modern technologies including drones (Unmanned aerial vehicles [UAVs]), Internet of Things (IoT) and sensor technologies, AI-based irrigation systems, satellite maps and other remote sensing technologies.
  • The use of olive oil by-products is becoming more significant for the modern producer as part of their overall sustainability strategy. In addition to olives, growers are using other by-products of the olive oil extraction process including leaves, pomace, and pits, and converting them into a variety of value-added products, including biofuels, composts, animal feeds, cosmetics and antioxidant-rich extracts.
  • Regulatory agencies and legislatures have implemented even tighter quality standards and protected designation of origin (PDO) certifying systems to help prevent tampering with food products and protect agricultural heritage. For example, the EU enacted tougher standards concerning how olive oils are labeled in 2024; as a result, consumers have greater confidence in purchasing these oils, and premium quality brands are receiving a higher price for their oil on the foreign market.
  • In addition to being used in cooking, olive oil derivatives are increasingly being utilized in the health and beauty industry. Due to the many clinical studies supporting the positive health effects of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, many companies are now marketing anti-inflammatory dietary supplements and anti-aging skin care products containing these ingredients. This trend is part of a wider cultural shift toward the purchase of functional wellness oriented products across many markets worldwide.

  • Extra virgin olive oil continues to be recognized as one of the highest quality olive oils due to its health benefits, unique flavor, and antioxidant properties, which leads many 'health-conscious' consumers to use an EVOO repeatedly.
  • Edible Olive Oil's popularity is growing due in part to the introduction of a wide variety of product innovations, such as organic, cold-pressed, and flavored varieties of olive oils. Manufacturers are creating new "infused" oils (garlic, rosemary, truffle) for more gourmet users, and utilizing innovative packaging, such as ultraviolet protective bottles and spray dispensers, to enhance the storage life of their oils and provide additional value-added functionality for the consumer.
  • Through culinary use, many types of edible olive oils are available to consumers for dressings, marinades, sautéing, and frying, making them more versatile than specialty products or niche products. Edible olive oils are also shelf-stable, so they are essential to both home cooks and food service providers in the household and HoReCa sectors of the economy.
  • Although true premium olive oils may be priced higher than other types of edible oils, the overall health and wellness benefits, along with increasing disposable incomes and acceptance of the Mediterranean diet worldwide, will help ensure continued resilience for the olive oil category.

  • Premium and organic brands currently use glass packaging to indicate their authenticity, purity and origin. Glass is a popular type of packaging among brands with PDO/PGI positioning and brands sold in gourmet retail settings. Heavier glass formats support higher price realization among brands sold through Specialty Manufacturers and Hospitality & Restaurant Channels (HoReCa).
  • In addition, sustainability trends will only increase the need for using glass because of the high recycling rates, introduction of returnable bottle pilots and lightweight glass innovations reducing carbon footprint and logistics costs associated with using glass.
