This newly updated report from Access Asia covers the market for edible oils in China including margarine, olive oil, vegetable and seed Oil as well as butter. The total market value for edible oils, including margarine, olive oil, vegetable oil and butter, in current value terms, reached RMB118.69bn (US$14.34bn) by 2004, the total market value having risen by 41.32% since 1998, at an average annual growth rate of 6.57%. However, the industry is not all a rosy picture - over capacity in the processing industry means there is a greater reliance on imports creating difficulties for farmers. But, greater future imports of oil-bearing crops, crude oils and processed oils will mean significant new opportunities for foreign companies to enter the market.
