Palm oil continued to be the most popular vegetable oil globally, given its varied applications

Among vegetable oils, palm oil remained the most popular with around 30% of the market share. Grown only in tropical countries, oil palm trees produce high-quality oil that is used for cooking in developing countries. It is also used in food products, detergents, cosmetics, and to a small extent, biofuels. Being a very productive crop, it is used across applications and across the globe. It offers a far greater yield at a lower cost of production than other vegetable oils. The soybean oil market is projected to be the fastest-growing market by 2026. Animal fats find major applications in pet food, animal feed, and other industrial purposes such as biodiesel and oleochemicals.

 

Vegetable oils garnered popularity as a replacement to traditional oils and trans-fats

The fats & oils market, by application, is estimated to be dominated by the food applications segment in 2021. It is also projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. Oils of plant origin have been predominantly used for food-based applications. Plant oils not only represent a non-polluting renewable resource, but also provide a wide diversity in fatty acids composition with diverse applications.

The rising health awareness among the people of every generation has led to a rise in the adoption of vegetable oils and fats to replace traditional oils and trans-fats, which contain a high level of saturated fatty acids and are known to cause various ailments.

Asia Pacific remained the largest and fastest growing regional market, owing to high consumption in China and India

Asia Pacific, followed by Europe, accounted for the largest share both in value and volume in the global fats & oils market  in 2021. The large consumption base in Asia Pacific, i.e., robust processed foods and industrial applications for fats and oils, makes it the fastest-growing region during the forecast period. Asia pacific fats & oils market is majorly driven by China and India, owing to the shift in consumption patterns and the high imports of vegetable oils and fats. As per a report by Jiangnan University, China, the consumption of vegetable oils in China has been increasing year by year. The top vegetable oils consumed in China included soybean oil, rapeseed oils, palm oil, and peanut oil. India is the world’s second-largest consumer and the largest importer of vegetable oils.

COVID-19 Impact on the Fats & Oils Market

The supply and demand for fats & oils in the global market has shifted due to the coronavirus crisis, with an increasing uncertainty related to prices. Palm oil, which is the largest type of oil produced globally, faced the impact as demand dropped across the world, trade was disrupted, and production got hampered in Indonesia and Malaysia, according to the top vegetable oils producers, such as Wilmar International and Mehwah Group, which operate in the region. Efforts were being made in many countries to maintain stability in the market. According to the Indonesian Palm Oil Producers Association (GAPKI), exports to China plunged by 57% in January 2019-2020. Governments from countries such as India, China, and the US made exemptions for the sector to continue their businesses with minimal capacity amid the lockdowns. As the production continued, these companies could mitigate the considerable impact by the continuity of operations.

Opportunity: Emerging application of fats and oils as substitutes of trans-fats

Trans-fats are unsaturated fatty acids formed during the hydrogenation of vegetable oils or are found in animal products naturally produced in the gut of grazing animals. Consumption of trans-fat raises the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the blood. An elevated LDL blood cholesterol level can increase the risk of developing cardiovascular. Trans-fats are found in many food products, such as vegetable shortenings, stick margarine, refrigerated dough products (such as biscuits and cinnamon rolls), snack foods, coffee creamers, cookies, cakes, frozen pies, frozen pizza, and fast food.

Owing to the increased health consciousness among consumers, trans-fats are gradually replaced by a much healthier substitute, namely unsaturated liquid vegetable oils, such as olive, canola, corn, or soy oils.

On the basis of source, vegetable segment is expected to retain its dominance in the foreseeable period

Vegetable oils from sunflower, rapeseed, soybean, palm, cottonseed, and coconut are highly used in food applications which has driven the market for vegetable-sourced oils. The qualities associated with vegetable oils such as low-fat, low-cholesterol, and low-calories content are registering growth in the segment. Also, the variety of use of vegetable oils in food as well as other industries such as pleo-chemical industries, animal feed, and energy & biomass industry has also driven the market for vegetable oils.

On the basis of form, liquid oils are projected to witness the highest growth in the market

The liquid form of fats & oils is forecasted to dominate the market. However, the physical characteristics of fats and oils depends upon a lot of factors such as degree of unsaturation, the length of the parent carbon chain, the isomeric forms of the fatty acids, molecular configuration, and processing variables, but it is believed that the liquid oils are more unsaturated and are hence more preferred by the consumers.
