Olive oil is a liquid fat obtained from olives, a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean

Basin. The oil is produced by pressing whole olives. It is commonly used in cooking, for
frying foods or as a salad dressing. It is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and soaps,
and as a fuel for traditional oil lamps, and has additional uses in some religions.
Today, Spain is the largest producer of olive oil by volume, followed by Italy and Greece.
However, per capita national consumption is highest in Greece, followed by Spain, Italy, and
Tunisia.
Olive oil is a vegetable oil. It is made by getting the juice of the fruits of the olive tree. These
are called olives. The oil is used in cooking, as well as cosmetics, traditional medicine, and
as a fuel for oil lamps.

Olive oil quality is defined by some parameters that are measured by chemical analysis.
One of the most important is acidity. The highest quality olive oil (Extra-Virgin) must feature
an acidity lower than 0.8%

Types
There are many different types of olive oil. You can buy extra virgin olive oil, virgin olive oil,
regular olive oil and even pomace olive oil. However, pomace is produced as a byproduct of
olive oil; it is treated with chemicals and blended with olive oils to create pomace olive oil.

pomace
Olive oil is extracted from olives and comes in many different types. Pomace is produced
during the process of making olive oil. Pomace olive oil is made by treating the pomace with
chemicals to extract the remaining oil from it, then blending it with olive oil.
Olive Pomace Oil stands up to heat when you're baking, cooking and doing hot-fill
processes in manufacturing. This means that the heat used in cooking and the general
process of making your food won't damage the oil, including the taste or the smell.

Making Pomace Olive Oil

According to the International Olive Oil Council, olive pomace is a solid material that is
produced when making olive oil. Keep in mind that pomace is not restricted to olives. This
solid material can be produced by crushing any fruit.

When making olive oil, pomace is usually considered a waste product. However, it can be
used to make a different oil of its own, known as pomace olive oil. To make pomace olive
oil, the solid pomace needs to be treated with chemicals. At this stage, the oil isn't edible,
however. It's known as crude pomace oil. Crude pomace oil is then refined to make it
edible. This is known as refined olive pomace oil.

However, most refined olive pomace oil is not sold as is — at least, not when it's intended
to be used for culinary purposes. Instead, most refined olive pomace oil is mixed with virgin
olive oil to enhance its flavor, nutritional benefits and antioxidant properties. The resulting
product is known as olive pomace oil.
Health Benefits of Pomace
Olive pomace also contains a range of healthy fats and beneficial bioactive compounds, like
antioxidants and pentacyclic triterpenes.
Combat bacteria, fungi and other microbes.
Combat cardiovascular diseases like atherosclerosis.
Combat the negative effects of diabetes.
Combat inflammation.
Lower cholesterol.
Protect various organ systems, including the gastrointestinal system and liver.

India Olive Oil Market Overview:
The India olive oil market size was valued at $58.6 million in 2017, and is projected to reach
$127.5 million by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 9.9% from 2018 to 2025.

Imp
The olive oil category has a minuscule share of the overall edible oil market, which is only
about 0.1 per cent in India.

There are about 90 olive brands currently competing against each other. Players like
Borges, Leonardo, Del Monte and RS form the premium category of olive oils in India.

“With new entrants surfacing in the market, the category has become highly competitive
and even more price-sensitive,” Rajneesh Bhasin, managing director, Borges India, told
Nandita Vijay in an e-mail. Excerpts:

How do you see the growth of olive oil use and consumption in India?
The category, which started at 3,000 tonne about 5-6 years ago, stands at 12,730 tonne
today. With a growth rate between 15-20 per cent annually, the category is surely catching
onto the Indian masses.

The increase in the imports is an indicator of the increased consumption and penetration of
this category in India.
The current Indian scenario is supportive for the category to grow owing to the growing
health awareness and the increased adaption of the healthy lifestyle.

In fact, there is an increase in the base of explorers who are willing to try and invest in
products which offer healthy benefits, rather than sticking to the existing bucket of
everyday products.

Could you give a peek into the olive oil industry in India and the existing players?
The olive industry in India today is far more evolved from what it was 8-10 years ago. Back
then, olive or jaitoon oil was just another higher-grade oil used for skin and baby massage.

Its usage as a cooking or edible oil was known to only those who were well-travelled and
aware of continental and Mediterranean food.

Today, the olive industry is far more developed, with olive oil entering the masses as an
edible oil rather than a massage oil.

Indians are aware of its benefits and are ready to cook their regular meals in olive oil. But
there is still a long way to go.

Today, the olive oil category has a minuscule share of the overall edible oil market, which is
only about 0.1 per cent in India.

There are about 90 olive brands currently competing against each other. Players like
Borges, Leonardo, Del Monte, and RS form the premium category of olive oils in India.

With new entrants surfacing in the market, the category has become highly competitive
and even more price-sensitive.
Do you see this oil replacing Indian domestic cooking oil mediums?
Indian domestic cooking requires high-heat cooking like frying, sautéing and use of Indian
spices. Olive oil, which has the essence of olives and a low smoking point, does not fit in.
So, we, at Borges, introduced an Extra Light olive oil, which has a neutral taste and a high
smoking point, which makes it an ideal fit for everyday Indian cooking.

Since then, we have been known to be the pioneers of olive oil in India, and till today,
command 70-80 per cent share in the Extra Light category.
Today, we see an increased movement towards Extra Virgin olive oil, which is used for
salads and as a healthier substitute to butter.

Olive oil is the liquid fat derivative obtained from olives, which is a traditional tree crop of
the Mediterranean Basin. It is native to the Mediterranean regions and is especially found
in Spain, Italy, and Greece. The composition of olive oil varies with altitude, time of harvest,
and extraction process. It has a low smoke point of 240°C and hence can be consumed raw.
This oil is primarily used for cooking, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical applications. It mainly
consists of oleic acid, with the smaller amount of fatty acids including linoleic acid (up to
21%) and palmitic acid (up to 20%). Olive oil consumption is often considered healthy as it is
associated with a lower risk of heart disease and certain cancers including colorectal and
breast cancer. It is also a good source of monounsaturated fatty acid and antioxidants such
as polyphenols, vitamins E & K, chlorophyll, and carotenoids. The nutritional value and taste
associated with olive oil have raised its demand among the consumers. It has a wide range
of application in the food and cosmetics industries.

getting aware of the benefits of olive oil usage and its effect on health. There are three
main types of olive oil Extra-virgin, Refined and Pomace.

Over the years, the industrial sector used to dominate the trade of olive oil, which have
been overtaken by the retail industry. Trade through the retail sector has increased as the
companies are targeting mostly the tier one cities with an increase in the number of
modern trade and the demand among the consumers.

Olive oil being the premium product the companies are yet to explore the tier 2 and 3 cities
because of lack of distribution in those sector and low demand among the consumers. To

packages of olive oil so that consumers can test the product and include it in their daily
usage. The sizes of the packs are ranging from 10 grams to 250 grams and are available with
the packages of more than 5kg packs according to the requirement.

Production of olive oil in India as of now is only in Rajasthan as it is the only region which
fits the production criteria.
