The winners of the 2024 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition’s Northern Hemisphere division will begin to be revealed on March 19 at 9:00 AM (13:00 UTC) in New York. The online presentation will unveil each winning brand at the moment its result is certified by the NYIOOC.
In a year marked by challenges stemming from climate extremes, market headwinds and a global olive oil shortfall, producers in every region turned out to compete in the world’s largest and most prestigious olive oil quality contest.
The results of the NYIOOC are closely followed by food industry professionals, media and consumers worldwide.
More than 58,000 viewers witnessed last year’s real-time rollout of the winners on bestoliveoils.org, where the official results are presented. Each year, millions of visitors to the portal learn about the awarded producers.
More than 440 articles have been written on the 2023 award-winning producers in international media outlets, including dispatches by Olive Oil Times journalists who closely cover the results of the annual contest and feature award-winning producers throughout the year.
This year, the NYIOOC unveiled the Olive Oil Times World Ranking portal of historical data and standings spanning the twelve editions of the contest.
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.
