Spanish Olive Oil Market Situation (August 2025)

The Ministry of Agriculture, in collaboration with the Food Information and Control Agency (AICA), has released preliminary assessments of olive oil market activities for the month of August, reporting an output of 120,000 tons, which includes an estimated 15,000 tons of imports.

Olive Oil Market Data (August 2025):

Shipments: 105,215 tons plus the 15,000 tons of imports.

Accumulated production: 1,415,380 tons.

Stocks at production: 235,427 tons.

Stocks at bottlers: 165,842 tons.

Private Company Stocks (PCO): 3,344 tons.

Total inventory: 404,613 tons.

Upon examining the olive oil reserves available at the mills at the end of August, there was a noted amount of 235,427 tons, which is a significant decrease from the 322,000 tons recorded at the end of July. Meanwhile, industrial bottlers had about 165,842 tons in August, down from 188,000 tons at the end of July. This reflects the targeted purchases they have been making to meet their needs given a moderate supply in the market.

In total, the industry currently has 404,613 tons of olive oil in storage, getting ready for the start of the new campaign, which is expected in less than three weeks.

Given that projections for the upcoming harvest are lower than the initial estimates from May, it is important to stay alert for the data that the Andalusian Regional Government will provide at the end of September.
