2One of the World’s Largest Producers of Olive Oil
Greece is the third-largest producer of olive oil globally, after Spain and Italy. Olive cultivation has been a staple of Greek agriculture for thousands of years, and some olive trees in Crete are believed to be over 2,000 years old and still producing olives.
Greek olive oil is highly regarded for its purity and quality, with many regions receiving Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status.
