About us — Indian Olive Association

Indian Olive Association

The Indian Olive Association (IOA) was established in 2007 to promote, protect and safeguard the interests of the olive and olive oil industry in India.

It is the national apex association of olive and olive oil producers, growers, distributors, importers, users and consumers — bringing together every link in the value chain under a single industry voice.

For nearly two decades, IOA has worked as the bridge between global olive producers and Indian consumers — advocating quality standards, supporting domestic awareness and engaging with policy-makers on duties, labelling and grading.

The Association engages directly with international bodies such as the International Olive Council (IOC), and Ambassadors in India of olive-producing countries that are IOC members serve as Patrons of IOA.
