Africa Olive Market - Growth and Trends, Forecast to (2017-2022)

The African olive industry is just a sapling compared to its counterparts in the Mediterranean, where olives have been cultivated for ages. The South African olive industry comprises more than 120 olive producers, 90% of them based in the Western Cape because of its temperate, Mediterranean climate. The European Union announced that it is expanding its import quota of olive oil from Tunisia, and has signaled that it is preparing for fresh trade talks with the North African countries.

Africa Olive Market Dynamics

Within a few decades, South African olive oil has equaled, and in many instances exceeded in quality, the olive oil produced by nations like Spain, Greece, and Italy, which are famous for their olive oils. There are a number of reasons for this. The South African olive industry is completely unsubsidized. Local olive growers voluntarily self-regulate their industry and are motivated by passion as much as commercial necessity.
