The Ultimate List of Olive Oil Conversions & Calculations

Posted by Hannah Broaddus

It can be confusing to get pricing from so many different suppliers for bulk oils. Each offers their pricing in different units: US suppliers give pricing in pounds or gallons, european suppliers give pricing in metric tons (MT), liters or kilograms.

Converting the metric to the english system (or vice versa) can be confusing-- any middle schooler will agree with you on this. Especially when your bulk olive oil prices depend on accurate calculations.

That’s why we’ve created a set of conversion standards for you, so that you can convert all of the weights you receive quickly and simply. This will help you convert your pricing into many different forms so that you can accurately compare options across the board.

A Buyer's Tip: Bookmark this blog article in your browser to access the olive oil conversions quickly when you need them. Also, always ask your supplier for their exact conversions for pricing and shipping accuracy.
