The organic olive oil market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1 billion in 2023 to $1.09 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The growth during the historic period was driven by factors such as heightened consumer awareness of health benefits, increased disposable income, the growing popularity of the Mediterranean diet, expansion of organic farming practices, government subsidies and support, improvements in supply chain infrastructure, and the rise of specialty food stores.

The organic olive oil market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.59 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period is attributed to the rising demand for organic products, advancements in organic farming techniques, expansion of e-commerce platforms, an increasing number of health-conscious consumers, innovative marketing strategies, premiumization of food products, and regulatory backing for organic farming. Key trends expected in this period include the adoption of blockchain for traceability, eco-friendly packaging, AI applications in agriculture, cold-pressed extraction technology, the development of new organic certifications, digital marketing leveraging social media influence, and the use of drones in olive cultivation.

The increasing demand for functional foods is expected to drive growth in the organic olive oil market in the future. Functional foods are natural components known for providing additional health benefits beyond basic nutrition. As consumers become more conscious of the relationship between diet and health, they increasingly prefer foods that offer added health benefits. Organic olive oil, rich in antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats, is favored in functional foods for its ability to reduce inflammation and improve heart health. For example, a February 2022 report from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada noted that retail sales in the health and wellness food and beverage sector in the United States rose to $191.9 billion in 2021 from $191.7 billion in 2020. The fortified or functional foods and beverages segment is projected to grow by 15.3%, with the health and wellness category anticipated to reach $218.1 billion by 2025, marking a 13.8% increase from 2021. Thus, the growing demand for functional foods is a key driver of the organic olive oil market.

Leading organizations in the organic olive oil sector are focusing on enhancing distribution and development through digital ecosystems such as application management systems. These systems streamline supply chains, improve traceability, and enable direct connections with global consumers. Digital application management systems also support farmers in learning from peers, adopting new technologies, managing finances and marketing efficiently, and participating in broader communities. For instance, an EU initiative launched in September 2021 introduced the Artolio App to connect extra virgin olive oil producers across the Mediterranean, enhancing business operations, fostering innovation, and facilitating knowledge exchange. Funded by the European Union under the ENI CBC MED program, this initiative aims to build a digital community among skilled local producers, improve visibility, leverage economies of scale, and deliver high-quality products to the market.
