The National Olive Industry Conference & Trade Exhibition
The National Olive Conference & Exhibition will not proceed as a physical, centralised event in 2026 due to global fuel supply chain disruptions and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, which have created significant logistical uncertainty and financial risk regarding event deposits.
While the traditional three-day format of field day, plenary sessions and a trade exhibition is unrealistic for this year , the Australian Olive Association is developing alternative networking and industry learning concepts. A final decision on these alternatives will be communicated in the new financial year as the fuel situation becomes clearer. More details here.
The National Olive Conference & Trade Exhibition is facilitated by the Australian Olive Association, partially funded by Hort Innovation using the Olive R&D levy, with in-kind contributions from the Australian Olive Association and funding from the Australian Government. The event is also supported by a range of industry sponsors and exhibitors.
