Spain’s olive oil market
The olive oil market in Spain is largely flat in Week 13, with low activity as both buyers and sellers adopt a wait-and-see approach ahead of the Easter break. Demand and supply are limited, and most market participants are focused on conserving stock rather than making new purchases.
Bottlers are seeking lower prices, but offers are scarce, and many companies are holding back until after the holiday period. Production continues, though volumes remain modest, keeping supply tight.
Overall, Spain’s market is quiet and cautious, with most players waiting for post-Easter activity to gauge direction.

Greece’s olive oil market
The olive oil market in Greece remains stable in Week 13, with very limited buying activity.
The 2025/26 harvest is complete, and tight supply is supporting firm prices as producers focus on maintaining value.
Italian buyers are seeking lower prices, but Greek sellers are unwilling to compromise, resulting in a standoff that has stalled large-volume transactions. Trade is expected to remain selective and subdued until after Easter, when demand may pick up.
In the meantime, sellers are moving small, opportunistic lots—mainly lower-quality or previous crop EVOO—at discounts, while keeping current-season high-quality oils at firm prices. Overall, Greece is in a holding pattern: prices are steady, sellers are resisting downward pressure, and meaningful trade is likely to resume once buyers return.

Italy's olive oil market
The olive oil market in Italy is quiet in Week 13, with buyers seeking lower-priced options but finding limited product available, especially from Spain.
EVOO is quoted at roughly €6.50–7.00/kg. Lampante activity is subdued, and refined sales remain minimal. The 2025/26 harvest is complete, supply is tight, and producers are holding firm on pricing while awaiting stronger demand. Overall, Italy’s market is stable but subdued, with most activity limited to small transactions.
Tunisia's olive oil market
The olive oil market in Tunisia remains steady in Week 13. EVOO is quoted at €3.70–3.80/kg, while organic offerings are around €4.00/kg.
Spain and Italy continue to actively purchase Tunisian oil, supporting demand, but exports to the U.S. have slowed due to current tariffs, limiting sales in that market. Overall, Tunisia’s market is stable, with European buyers driving most of the activity.

Market outlook
Markets are expected to remain quiet through Easter, with most participants observing rather than actively trading.
Key factors to watch:
● Post-Easter demand: Buyers returning with real needs could lift activity in Spain and Greece; if they wait for lower prices, markets may remain subdued.
● Flowering conditions: Mid-April flowering in Andalusia, the Peloponnese, and Tuscany will shape the 2026/27 harvest. Warm, dry weather could support prices; moderate, wet conditions could ease them.
● U.S. tariffs: Exporters are cautious, preparing for possible relief but not committing volumes yet.
Overall, prices should hold, with small opportunistic sales possible. Bigger moves will depend on post-Easter demand and early-season crop reports.
