This shift is particularly evident among younger demographics, who prioritize organic and cold-pressed oils, reflecting a broader trend towards clean eating and sustainability. Additionally, the Mediterranean diet's renewed popularity has led to a preference for olive oil and other local oils over processed alternatives. As lifestyles evolve, convenience and transparency in sourcing have become crucial, driving demand for brands that emphasize quality and origin.

Trends in the market:
In Greece, the Other Oils & Fats Market is experiencing a notable shift towards healthier and more sustainable options, driven by an increasing consumer focus on nutrition and wellness.

This evolving landscape emphasizes the importance of convenience and transparency, compelling industry stakeholders to prioritize quality, ethical sourcing, and brand storytelling to meet consumer demands.

Local special circumstances:
In Greece, the Other Oils & Fats Market is uniquely shaped by its rich agricultural heritage and the country's abundant olive groves, which contribute significantly to the production of high-quality olive oil.
