It can be extracted from numerous sources such as olive, coconut, sesame seeds, mustard seeds, groundnuts among others.

Market Dynamics

The rising demand for edible oil is attributed to an increase in awareness and popularity of unprocessed, healthy organics, non-refined oils. In addition, vigorous demand for organic health-based products, rising consumption of higher-grade edible oils or cooking oils by the health-conscious consumers, and demand from numerous applications such as in the confectionery industry for candies production are expected to drive the global edible oil market during the forecast period.

Owing to disturbed lifestyles the consumers are opting for healthy food. Rising cases of obesity and cardiovascular diseases are augmenting the consumers for opting for healthy food. Further, the demand for olive and coconut oil is being increased in bakery and cooking applications in the past years as they are bland in taste unlike mustard oil, and help in sustaining the original flavour. Rising urban working culture limits the availability of time for cooking thereby increasing consumption of processed foods that require frying which is also expected to surge the market growth. Such inclination for edible oils has influenced the food manufacturers to shift their focus by offering edibles enriched with vitamins, natural anti-oxidants, omega 3, and other ingredients which are good for health & consumption.

However, prolonged use of certain types of edible oils and over-frying oil increases the level of cholesterol, blood pressure, and vascular inflammation which is expected to hinder the market growth. The increasing demand for non-GMO cooking oils such as coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, soybean oil, and canola oil and availability of retail segment is also expected for increasing the sales of edible oil during the forecast period thereby increasing the market growth.
