I'm sure it's not olive grove in this context. About a fair "dedicada al sector del olivar y del aceite de oliva" Would this be olive farming?

olive growing
maybe this would cover production as opposed to actual olive groves or olive oil

I found this about a (similar?) trade fair in Spain - they talk about olives & olive oil as two 'sectors'
Every year, during the third weekend in November, Caimari, a small village in the municipality of Selva, holds the Olive Fair, dedicated basically to promoting the traditional production of oil and olives. The programmed events start on the Friday afternoon with the delivery by the local youngsters of olive branches to all the homes.

The economic impact of Israeli policies on the **olive sector** has been massive - over 10 million dollars lost to damage in the past two years, and millions more to Israel's barring farmers from their land.

The broad picture for the **olive sector** is of intensified production leading to certain negative effects on the environment’ (14).

Another option if you wanted to keep 'olive oil' in there:
"....DEDICATED TO OLIVE OIL AND THE SECTOR/INDUSTRY IN GENERAL.

Note from asker:
| Hi Lisa Are you suggesting I just say the olive sector and forget the olive ol bit? Glad to see I'm not the only "pringado" working on Sunady morning! |

olive products
My take on this: These products are treated differently (in the market) even though they come from the same agricultural endeavor, (i.e. the same sector).

It takes a little more juggling to make it sound less clumsy: “dedicated to the olive oil and olive products sector”
