Earlier Report Observations

Chilean fresh olive production increased from 126.0 thousand tons in 2018 to 146.7 thousand tons in 2021. The industry has a heterogeneous structure with several large integrated companies and many small to medium processors, primarily located in the Arica and Parinacota and Atacama regions, focusing on the domestic market.

Output declined to 126.5 thousand tons in 2022 due to water restrictions and alternate bearing, which lowered olive yields and reduced overall production volume.

Production recovered to 137.5 thousand tons in 2023, supported by the establishment of the Azapa Olive Contest Foundation aimed at improving quality and promoting local table olives, alongside expectations of a better harvest despite persistent drought conditions.
