Olive oil production is concentrated in countries along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, including Spain, Italy, Greece, Tunisia, Turkey, Syria and Morocco, and olive oil produced by the seven countries takes 90% of the total output. Spain, Italy and Greece are the three major producers and exporters of olive oil. China has planted olive since 1960s. In 2017, world output of olive oil was about 3.12 million tonnes, incresasing by about 22%. And the consumption represente 2.93 million tonnes, increasing by 6.16%.

In China, olive planting is mainly located at valleys of Bailong River and Jialing River in Sichuan, Gansu, Shaanxi and Yunnan. Up to the end of 2017, about 6,440 tonnes olive oil was produced and the retail volume was about 42.4 thousand tonnes, rising by around 12%. The retail value reached over RMB4.3 billion, rising by 11%.

Since a series of supportive policies published by local governments in suitable regions for olive planting has been implemented, planting area of olive will increase at a stable speed. At the same time, technologies of olive oil in China are being improved step by step, which will contribute to the rising trend of olive oil output. In 2023, the output is forecasted to be nearly 14,000 tonnes in China, the retail volume will be 75,000 tonnes and the retail value will exceed RMB7.8 billion.
