Nisshin OilliO Group has announced a price increase for a total of 30 olive oil products, both for household and professional use, starting with the May delivery. The sales price will be raised by 23% to 80% due to continued reduced production in Europe caused by heatwaves and droughts, leading to a global shortage of stock.
For household products, 22 items are targeted for the price increase. Almost all products, except for some seasoning oils, will see a price increase ranging from 23% to 64%. “BOSCO Extra Virgin Olive Oil (456g)” will have a 50% price increase, and “Nisshin Delicately Fragrant Extra Virgin Olive Oil (350g)” will see a 62% increase.
