In a year marked by chal­lenges stem­ming from a global pan­demic, cli­mate change and mar­ket head­winds, pro­duc­ers in every olive oil-pro­duc­ing region turned out in record num­bers to com­pete in the world’s largest and most pres­ti­gious olive oil qual­ity con­test.

The NYIOOC received 1,171 entries for the 2021 edi­tion, break­ing the pre­vi­ous record of 1,003 set in 2018.

The entries were ana­lyzed by 21 expert tasters from 13 coun­tries work­ing remotely and sup­ported by NYIOOC tech­ni­cal teams.

Curtis Cord, the NYIOOC founder and pres­i­dent, hailed the judges for demon­strat­ing yet again their com­mit­ment to pro­duc­ers of excel­lence around the world.”

The results of the NYIOOC are closely fol­lowed by food indus­try pro­fes­sion­als, media and oth­ers con­cerned with the qual­ity of the olive oil they buy.

Earning a dis­tinc­tion at the NYIOOC opens doors for pro­duc­ers striv­ing to dif­fer­en­ti­ate their brands in the crowded mar­ket­place. Importers, dis­trib­u­tors and traders use the com­pe­ti­tion results as a short­list for their buy­ing deci­sions.
