Boundary Bend disrupting US Olive Oil comfort zones

Boundary Bend is being blamed for disrupting “established relationships” between Californian olive growers and local oil processors and making an “olive land grab”.

Boundary Bend has this year been paying about $100 to $150 a tonne above the going rate to secure olives for its first harvest, paying $850 a tonne for Mission variety olives (which averaged $700/t last year) and $800/t for Manzanillo olives, which were selling for $600/t last year.
