From Tunisian Groves to Global Tables: OLYFO’s Expanding Export Footprint

OLYFO delivers premium Tunisian extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) to diverse markets worldwide, leveraging Tunisia’s position as the second-largest olive oil exporter. This footprint spans established European hubs, emerging Asian opportunities, African growth, and American demand, fueled by award-winning brands like 2500 Years of Tradition, Al ATIKA, and IFRIQIA.​

European Stronghold

Europe absorbs nearly 60% of Tunisia’s olive oil exports, with OLYFO active in the UK, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Germany, and Russia. The UK stands out for direct imports post-Brexit, where Tunisian EVOO meets rising demand for authentic Mediterranean flavors.​
Spain and Italy lead as top destinations, importing bulk volumes that OLYFO refines into premium offerings amid EU duty-free quotas.​

Asian Market Breakthroughs

OLYFO targets high-growth Asia, including Taiwan, Kuwait, Jordan and South Korea, where health-conscious consumers seek polyphenol-rich EVOO for wellness and cuisine. Tunisia’s promotional pushes into Japan, India, and Indonesia align with OLYFO’s strategy to diversify beyond bulk sales into branded, packaged products.​

African Expansion

Africa claims about 10% of Tunisian exports, with OLYFO thriving in Kenya, Senegal and Rwanda through bulk and private label demands. Sustainability resonates here, as OLYFO’s ethical sourcing supports local economies while meeting demand for pure, versatile olive oil.​

Americas Momentum

North America takes 25% of exports, led by the USA to build e-commerce and distribution. OLYFO’s NYIOOC awards and fresh profiles appeal to US chefs and consumers shifting to Tunisian EVOO over EU blends.​

Driving Global Demand

Tunisia exported over 235,000 tons from November 2024 to September 2025, with OLYFO capitalizing via cold-pressed, pesticide-free production from rain-fed groves. Contact OLYFO for imports via olyfo.com to source award-winning Tunisian EVOO.
