Images reminiscent of Spain and Greece. Anti-theft systems for olive oil are appearing in more and more supermarket chains, in order to “protect” the product from possible theft attempts, as its price rises significantly.
Pictures I posted today com. enikos.loveDisplays Olive oil bottles and containers On the shelves of three different supermarket chains To be “restricted” to anti-theft devices. Although the photo may be unusual and perhaps controversial, the heads of food retail chains They consider this method necessary to prevent theft as the price of oil is now “gold”.
Until now, anti-theft devices have been mainly used for alcoholic beverage bottlesHowever, it now seems that due to precision, the range of products is expanding. It is noteworthy that a few days ago it was learned that the thefts of olive oil had increased on the island of Crete.
Olive oil on supermarket shelves increased by up to 50% in one year As olive producers say. The average retail price of extra virgin olive oil rose to 12 euros per litre Touch and in some cases even 16 euros when one year ago the price was 8 euros per litre.
Based on e-katanalwtis platform, Olive oil of a certain type is sold In supermarkets from 8.35 euros per liter to 13.98 euros per liter. If someone wants to buy a 4-litre package, they will have to pay from €38.42 per liter to €49.98 per litre. The rise in prices is due to lower production in Europe and Greece.
It was noted that Last year, producers sold oil at 5 euros per kilo. This led to it hitting supermarket shelves at a price of between 8 and 10 euros this year The price of the product will be set at 8 euros per 1 liter. This bar is expected to leave at a price tag of over €10, so consumers won’t find it for less than €15 on the shelf. The price of olive oil is expected to remain high by 50% to 60% over the next two years.
Anti-theft systems are being installed in supermarkets in Spain
Anti-theft systems Most supermarkets in Spain stock their pure extra virgin olive oil Because of its high price. This is mainly done by very large chains in the country. At the moment though Spain produces between 40 and 55% of the total global production of olive oil. It is also noteworthy that one month ago, approximately 60,000 liters were stolen from an olive press in Cordoba. Its price is estimated at approximately 500,000 euros This was done by tanks that were there and transported with drums.
It is noteworthy that since the beginning of the year, the price of olive oil in Spain has reached 6.91 euros per literBut its price today “rose” in September to 10.34 euros per litre. It is noteworthy that the Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Luis Planas, had recently stated that the price of olive oil would not fall unless September was a very rainy month. However, since the beginning of September, the rains have not stopped in Spain, even in the south Part of it still suffers from drought and lack of rain. At this moment, the Spaniards are paying a high price for oil due to the rains that fell over a period of three months last spring. However, it remains to be seen whether the price of olive oil will fall after this rainy month of September, because the rain is currently fattening the fruit and so the oil could become cheaper.
