Welcome
to Olives South Australia Incorporated

Olives South Australia Inc (OSA) is the peak industry body representing olive growers in South Australia since 1996.  OSA is a "participating state body" of the Australian Olive Association (AOA).  In 2007 the National olive industry underwent a structural reorganisation which has seen all other states become branches of the national body (AOA).  Whilst Olives SA acts like a branch and is bound to the AOA by way of a "memorandum of understanding", we retain our constitution.   

The AOA is made up of 6 Directors from the olive growing states, nominated by that State, plus 3 Directors from the Large Enterprise Group.  Our State Director for South Australia is Lisa Rowntree.

Our vision is to ensure that OSA leads a profitable, sustainable and united olive industry.

The Board of Olives SA is made up of growers (majority); processors, harvesting contractors and other invited representatives from from Primary Industries SA, Rural Solutions SA and the Adelaide University.   

The results of the 2009 13 Annual Extra Virgin Olive OIl Awards and 8th Annual Table Olive Awards were announced on Friday 30th October 2009 at Martinhas Restaurant, Adelaide.
