Planas descarta que el aceite de oliva importado de Túnez tenga un efecto en los precios

Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, Luis Planas, stated on September 13 that olive oil imports from Tunisia do not influence domestic market prices. Planas noted that these imports account for approximately 5% of the total olive oil commercialized within Spain.

This assessment was provided during an interview, addressing concerns regarding the impact of foreign supply on local pricing structures. The minister’s remarks serve to clarify the limited role of Tunisian imports in the current Spanish olive oil market context.
