I think at the end of the day everyone deserves a pat on the back for all the hard work they put into this relatively new industry in Australia.\u201d<\/em> Guy Ward, Arkstone Olives, 2022 AIOA Best of Show EVOO (Boutique Volume)<\/p>\n \u201cI work so hard and it\u2019s just wonderful to get something for all the hard work. I put my heart and soul into it, and I think it\u2019s paid off with this award\u2026and it\u2019s expensive to make, so the boost in sales is such a bonus. Instead of three bottles, now people will ask for 12 \u2013 when it\u2019s won Best in Show, it makes a great present.\u201d<\/em> Liz Tonkinson, Leisal Rose, 2021 AIOA Best of Show EVOO<\/p>\n “Until we entered the\u00a0competition last year we had underestimated its importance. Not only does it provide a really important benchmark for whether we are achieving an excellent product (or not), we have gained so much confidence in what we are doing and built our reputation with customers. Also we have been able to increase our prices on the Gold medal products.\u201d<\/em> Owen & Dianne Carington Smith,\u00a0Bruny Island Olives, 2020<\/p>\n “It meant a lot to the team and as a business we’ve achieved something. It’s also very good for sales, as people care about the award.”<\/em> Jared Bettio, Rio Vista Olives, 2020<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Australian International Olive Awards 2024 Medal Winners Announced (via email to winners): Monday 7th October 2024 Key Award Winners Announced: Friday 25th October 2024, Ballarat, VIC.\u00a0 WINNING IS MARKETING GOLD \u201cCompetitions like the AIOA are very important to growers and the industry.
