<pre>[2/7/2000] EXPORT COMPANIES: LIO OIL
The leader of olive oil export, the Lio Oil Industry is getting ready to go
public. It will be the third oil company in the world after the Spanish
Kopie and Greek Elias, oil companies went public. Last year, Lio company has
5% of the 508-thousand-ton world olive oil exports, and exports oil to about
20 countries around the world. With the 26% of Turkish olive oil exports,
the Lio Company is planning to buy an olive oil brand in the US and
to produce it in this country with this brand. /Hurriyet/


[1/23/2000] According to daily Sabah newspaper, Italy and Spain will have to
write "Made in Turkey" on their bottles of export oil bought in bulk from
Turkey.


[9/20/1999] OLIVE OIL STOCK EXCHANGE IN EDREMIT
The Ministry of Trade and Industry gave the green light to the Edremit Olive
Oil Stock Exchange Project. Edremit Mayor Tuncay Kilic said that they had
received a great many demands from the producers for the establishment of a
stock exchange for olives and olive oils, which are of great importance for
the region. He added that the project would be implemented as soon as
possible. /Aksam/

Interesting!
I hope we must do the same with all other oils, or Turkish lost a lot of
Italian customers...
Do you have an URL for that article in a readable language, e.g. English?
http://www.sabah.com.tr is Turkish for me ... <g>

Just to make some free advertising: the oil of Peter Caird is really good!
Better than the one of my mother-in-law ;-)
It looks like some Tuscany oil.

Bye

<pre>Hey Marco

I am so pleased that the oil met with your approval. Are you sure it's not
the Pernod speaking or is it a case of in vino veritas?

Thank you for the endorsement. FYI the blend was 40% Mission, 40% Verdale
and 20% Manzanillo. Fruit was picked when 80% of the tree was coloured from
green and crushed at 22 degreesC using an Oliomio 100. Did you like the
Bendigo Pottery Cruse? We have a new one for the coming season which will
hold 500ml. Anyone want to import it? With the Australian $ being in such
a parlous state we can be very competitive. I also have a Bendigo Pottery
jug that holds 50ml - perfect for hampers etc. Bendigo Pottery by the way,
is Australia's oldest working pottery. The romance of the blend of old and
new!

Regards

Everybody here is astounded, especially by the cost declared to Customs!
The only knowledge of Australia we have is from "Mr Crocodile Dundee"...

You must add to bottles a small folder explaining all this: it's really
interesting.

>Did you like the Bendigo Pottery Cruse?

Nice!

>We have a new one for the coming season which will hold 500ml. Anyone

We have a lot of ceramic producers here around (in Albisola, near Savona,
and in Vallauris, near Nice), but I'm curious to know the price for these
small jars.

>With the Australian $ being in such

Uh, don't speak about our Euro!
Today our gasoline is at 2150 lire/litre (1.11 euro), 10% of our taggiasca
oil, but still raising.
I'm waiting for these new cars hydrogen-powered...

>The romance of the blend of old and new!

I suppose Australian History books are very, very lighter than European
ones :-)
Hovever you're luckier than us: everywhere we dig we found something
"Roman" and we must stop to dig waiting for Archaeological Superintendence.
To make the Underground Railway in Rome it takes more than 30 yrs, because
Roman remains.
