Over the past few years, Greek producers of olive oil began to significantly slow down sales. It is noteworthy that it was not of their own free will, but because of trends in the world market.

In particular, countries such as, for example, Spain and Italy, are noticeably and faster ahead of Greece in terms of marketing olive oil to foreign markets. In addition, Turkey and Tunisia are increasing export rates.

The main reason Greece is losing ground in oil sales is that Greek producers cannot establish a strong and stable process for promoting their products on external trading floors.

It is also important to add that Greece, although it produces a huge amount of olive oil, but not all products are organic products. From this position of Greek olive oil in the eyes of foreign buyers significantly fall.

And in parallel, ratings of oil sales from Tunisia and Spain are growing, which keep pace with the times and produce more and more organic products.

At the moment, Greek suppliers have lost the opportunity to supply their oil to the North American market. But they do not intend to despair in Greece and plan to hastily find an alternative. For example, to increase the export of olive oil to the Indian market and to South Korea.
