Morocco's Olive Waste
Is Worth Billions.
We're Collecting It.

Oliveloop converts olive press waste into animal feed, compost, renewable energy, and rural income — using mobile units, operating at the source, in a single harvest season.

The Problem

After every olive harvest,
the crisis begins.

Morocco produces millions of tonnes of olive pomace each year. Most of it is dumped in fields or waterways. Livestock farmers, meanwhile, spend a growing share of income on imported feed. Rural families are squeezed from both sides.

🌊

Environmental Damage

Pomace dumped near waterways releases polyphenols that are acutely toxic to aquatic life and degrade soil health for years.

📈

Rising Feed Costs

Livestock farmers in Morocco spend 60–70% of operational budget on imported feed. Margins are shrinking every season.

🔗

No Circular Infrastructure

Existing solutions require farmers and millers to invest in infrastructure they don't have. The waste stays waste.

The Solution

One waste stream.
Four products. Zero trucks required.

Our mobile pelletization unit arrives at the olive press. We process pomace on site — no transport, no new infrastructure, no capital expenditure from the farmer or miller.

🚛

Mobile Unit Arrives

Our pelletization unit drives to the olive press during harvest season. No capital cost for the miller.

→ Waste collected on site

⚙️

Processing & Pelleting

Pomace is processed, dried, and pelleted into nutrient-dense animal feed meeting livestock nutrition standards.

→ Feed pellets produced

🐑

Feeding Trials

Lambs and rabbits on participating farms receive Oliveloop pellets. Feed costs, weight gain, and health data are tracked.

→ Feed cost −35–45%

🌱

Close the Loop

Residuals become compost. Organic waste feeds the biogas pilot. Visitors come to see it working. The data is published.

→ Impact report released

Why Oliveloop

Five things no competitor
has built yet.

The science exists. Other projects have proved parts of this model in a lab. We're the first commercial operation bringing the whole loop to Morocco — with a structure built for European investors from day one.

01 / 05

🚛

Mobile = Zero Friction

We go to the waste. No farmer or miller invests a single dirham in infrastructure. The mobile pelletization unit eliminates the #1 barrier to circular adoption in rural Morocco.

02 / 05

🔄

The Full Circular Loop

Feed + compost + biogas + eco-tourism in one pilot. Every competitor does one piece. Oliveloop runs the whole loop — more revenue streams, lower risk, a stronger story.

03 / 05

📊

One-Season Proof

Measurable, published results — feed cost reduction, waste diverted, jobs created — within a single olive harvest. Investors see real numbers before the next grant deadline.

04 / 05

🇩🇪

EU-Structured from Day One

Our German holding company structure positions Oliveloop as a European entity operating in Morocco — accessible to Horizon Europe grants, German impact funds, and ESG investors who can't fund purely non-EU entities.

05 / 05

🌿

Eco-Tourism as a Narrative Engine

No competitor is building visitor experiences around circular agriculture. Eco-tourism creates premium revenue that funds operations while generating the kind of authentic storytelling no marketing budget can buy.

Eco-Tourism

Come see the loop
in action.

The Oliveloop farm is a working circular agriculture site — and an experience. Watch olive pomace turn into feed, walk the compost rows, see the animals thrive, eat what the land produces.

For sustainability-minded travellers, researchers, school groups, and impact investors who want to see circularity working — not on a slide, but in the soil.

Expansion Roadmap

The Bouznika pilot is designed to replicate. Each successful season generates the evidence base for the next mobile unit, the next region, and ultimately a Mediterranean-wide network.

Phase 1: Bouznika pilot (2026)
Phase 2: Morocco-wide scale (2027–2028)
Phase 3: Mediterranean expansion (2029+)
Phase 4: European market entry via German holding
