Olive Oil: Product Information
Professional purchasers evaluate olive oil based on origin, varietal composition, free fatty acidity, peroxide value, organoleptic scores and compliance with IOC or local regulatory standards. Extra virgin lots are often differentiated by sensory attributes, harvest date and processing approach, while refined oils are selected for neutral flavour and technical performance in prepared foods and frying. Exporters can provide bulk in tanks, flexitanks or IBCs for local bottling, as well as pre-packed options for specific markets.
Logistics for olive oil demand careful handling to minimise oxidation and preserve quality. Exporters typically use nitrogen-blanketed storage, food-grade tanks and suitable high-barrier packaging for transport, along with temperature management where feasible. Shipments include full documentationโcertificates of analysis, origin statements, organic or PDO/PGI certifications where relevant and food-safety certificatesโsupporting regulatory compliance and brand storytelling.
