PRODUCT PROFILE

HS Code 150910

Product Olive oil, virgin

Out-of-scope Non virgin olive oil, blends, dressings, supplements, etc. as all are covered under other screened trade codes

Origin Olive tree native to Mediterranean, oil being produced by 6,000 BC

Example ingredients

Olives

Forms/usage -  Extensively used in Middle Eastern cuisines -  Used in Asia when cooking Mediterranean cuisines -  Cooking oil, ingredient, dressings, dip, marinating -  Ingredient in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, soaps, oil lamps

Drivers of consumer/market success

-  Health benefits of virgin olive oil

-  Flavour profile

-  Status as premium oil to use as dip and dressings

WHAT IS THE PRODUCT? Virgin olive oil emerged in Phase I as one of twenty “high growth, high potential” opportunities for Western Australia; virgin olive oil is the first pressing of the fruit of the olive tree

DOCUMENT STRUCTURE

What is the strategic situation in the market?

In this environment, what is the opportunity for Western Australia?

Who are the potential in-market partners?

Who are the key firms in Western Australia capable of delivering?

6

Western Australia is well-positioned to grow virgin olive oil exports to Asia

7

-  Asian virgin olive oil imports are increasing, with import value growth being driven by rising volume across low/no FOB (free-on-board) price increases

-  Asian & Middle Eastern import supply is effectively two countries: Spain and Italy

-  Spain and Italy have been the drivers of export growth to Asia and the Middle East

-  Spain leads in both absolute volume growth and rate of growth, followed closely by Italy

-  Average FOB price to target Asian markets vary by supplier, with Australia achieving a slight discount to Italy, but a premium to Spain

-  While virgin olive oil goes to a wide number of the target markets, East Asia is the key region; both Japan and China have large imports

-  East Asia – in particular Japan – is driving regional import growth

-  Market growth is coming from Japan, China, South Korea and Taiwan

-  Average import prices vary by market, with Taiwan and Japan standing out as attractive

-  Virgin olive oil consumption and aggregate imports appear strongly driven by income per capita; a number of markets appear to have long-run penetration upside (China in particular)

-  Italy and Spain trade off leadership across most markets; Australia has pockets of strength, particularly in China

-  Western Australia has clear opportunities for further virgin olive oil export growth in Asia, particular in East Asia

-  Data supports new high value, premium olive oil opportunities being initially launched in (1) China, (2) Hong Kong and (3) Japan

-  As a “Straw Man” for discussion, we identify a export market roll-out plan

Asian virgin olive oil imports are increasing, with import value growth being driven by rising volume across low/no FOB (free-on-board) price increases

In this environment, what is the opportunity for Western Australia?

Who are the potential in-market partners?

Who are the key firms in Western Australia capable of delivering?

22

Western Australia can grow extra virgin olive oil exports to Asia, but innovation is required

23

IS THE MARKET DEVELOPED & COMPETITIVE?

-  The flow of olive oil from the farm through to the consumer is relatively straight forward and simple

-  Extra virgin olive oil prices are competitive in Asia; there is a premium for “origin” and organic in some markets

-  Asian markets have a much less developed virgin olive oil range and offer than Western countries

-  “Leading indicator” Western markets strongly suggest depth of range in Asian virgin olive oil markets will increase going forward

-  Olive oil appears to support a market structure of ~5-6 brands and private label; global leaders exist (e.g. Colavita, Bertolli, Filippo Berio) and are in Asia

WHAT IS WA CAPABLE OF DELIVERING?

-  A range of premium, value-adding product attributes emerged from our cross-country retailer survey

-  Western Australian virgin olive oil producers need to continue to move forward and improve through new products

-  Multiple potential positions exist to develop a premium extra virgin olive oil offer for Asia

-  Products from other processors in other markets demonstrate what is possible in terms of developing a premium Western Australian extra virgin olive oil offer

-  There are a wide range of potential product positions or claims available for a premium extra virgin olive oil product from Western Australia targeting Asia

-  As a “Straw Man” for discussion, we identify an opportunity for a high value, premium extra virgin olive oil product with select characteristics for export market launch

HOW IS THE MARKET STRUCTURED? The flow of olive oil from the farm through to the consumer is relatively straight forward and simple

Coriolis is the leading Australasian management consulting firm specialising in the wider food value chain. We work on projects in agriculture, food and beverages, consumer packaged goods, retailing & foodservice. In other words, things you put in your mouth and places that sell them. WHERE WE WORK We focus on the Asia Pacific region, but look at problems with a global point-of-view. We have strong understanding of, and experience in, markets and systems in Australia, China, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, the United Kingdom and the U.S. We regularly conduct international market evaluations and benchmarking. WHAT WE DO We help our clients assemble the facts needed to guide their big decisions. We develop practical, fact-based insights grounded in the real world that guide our clients decisions and actions. We make practical recommendations. We work with clients to make change happen. We assume leadership positions to implement change as necessary. HOW WE DO IT All of our team have worked across one-or-more parts of the wider food value chain, from farm-to-plate. As a result, our recommendations are grounded in the real world. Our style is practical and down-to-earth. We try to put ourselves in our clients’ shoes and focus on actions. We listen hard, but we are suspicious of the consensus. We provide an external, objective perspective. We are happy to link our fees to results. WHO WE WORK WITH We only work with a select group of clients we trust. We build long term relationships with our clients and more than 80% of our work comes from existing clients. Our clients trust our experience, advice and integrity.

Coriolis advises clients on growth strategy, mergers and acquisitions, operational improvement and organisational change. Typical assignments for clients include… FIRM STRATEGY & OPERATIONS We help clients develop their own strategy for growing sales and profits. We have a strong bias towards growth driven by new products, new channels and new markets. MARKET ENTRY We help clients identify which countries are the most attractive – from a consumer, a competition and a channel point-of-view. Following this we assist in developing a plan for market entry and growth. VALUE CREATION We help clients create value through revenue growth and cost reduction. TARGET IDENTIFICATION We help clients identify high potential acquisition targets by profiling industries, screening companies and devising a plan to approach targets. DUE DILIGENCE We help organisations make better decisions by performing consumer and market-focused due diligence and assessing performance improvement opportunities. EXPERT WITNESS We provide expert witness support to clients in legal cases and insurance claims. We assist with applications under competition/fair trade laws and regulations.
