The Association of Exporters and Industrialists of Table Olives (Asemesa) in Spain does not anticipate tariffs on green olives in the United States, as the US lacks the capacity to produce them. However, since 2018, Spanish black olive producers have faced tariffs of around 30% to 31%, following claims of unfair competition and dumping practices from the US, a situation that has cost them around 280 million euros in losses despite the World Trade Organization's ruling that these tariffs are illegal. These tariffs have been imposed despite ongoing negotiations and a mandate to adapt US legislation under the Biden administration.
