Résumé : |
In Spain, the worlds leading olive oil producing country, the existing literature points to a malfunctioning of the value chain, since it hardly generates any profits and some links often incur losses. The aim of this research paper is to analyze the value chain of virgin olive oils, establishing the relationship between then prices of virgin olive oils at origin and the retail prices paid by the end consumer. The methodology used is the analysis of the value chain using quantitative research through descriptive statistics and the process of quantitative data collection under observation together with other statistical methods.
The data on retail prices have been obtained from the published information of the commercial operations of the retailers themselves, while the data on prices at origin come from the price statistics elaborated by national (Spain) and international (European Commission) organizations. The conclusions point out that the retail price of virgin olive oils by the retailers does not reflect the real production cost of the product, since they obey more to a concept of customer attraction strategy on the part of the distribution. |
