The Fortification of Cooking Oil Drives the Global Cooking Oil Market Growth.

There is an increased health consciousness among people leading to increased demand for healthier cooking oil. To meet the demand of the customers, the manufacturers are going for fortification of cooking oil, driving the market growth. Fortification of cooking oil with vitamins and micronutrients is developing well in the market. The fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A and vitamin D are most commonly used in the fortification of cooking oil to improve their nutritional value.

The government is also initiating cooking oil fortification. For instance, in 2021, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India issued a draft for mandatory fortification of cooking oil with vitamins A and D. According to the FSSAI, fortified oil can help a person to meet 25-30% of the recommended dietary intake for vitamins A and D. Within the Food Fortification Initiative, 27 countries have already ordered oil fortification.

The Increasing Demand for Processed Food Drives the Market Growth.

The increased demand for processed food options has a positive influence on the growth of the global cooking oil market. The busy lifestyle and less cooking time are increasing the processed food demand. Being one of the most essential ingredients of processed food, the demand for cooking oil, such as palm oil, is also rising rapidly. This increased demand is making the key market players develop various strategies to maintain their role in the market.

The various acquisitions and partnerships among the critical players in the market are driving the market of cooking oil to establish powerful developments in the industry. For instance, the partnership between Cargill, an American food corporation, and Frontline International, a US-based smart oil management manufacturer, in May 2021. Through this collaboration, they launched a New Kitchen Controller oil management system, to monitor oil filtration, disposal, and automation.

The Health Issues Related to Excess Consumption of Cooking Oil Restrains Market Growth.

Excessive consumption of oil can increase unhealthy LDL cholesterol and decrease healthy HDL cholesterol. Some of the oil, such as rapeseed oil, may contain higher levels of toxic fatty acids. Thus, higher consumption may have negative health effects. The high consumption of soy oil can affect the digestive system. Health problems such as heart attack, diabetes, and hypertension can easily get attacked due to higher consumption of this oil, restraining the market growth.

Oil adulteration is one major hindering factor to the growth of cooking oil. The adulteration of popular and expensive oil with cheaper oil is increasing. This can cause a major threat to health. For instance, in March 2021, the adulterated soybean oil of Fortune brand was seized by the government. The contamination, improper storage, and adulteration hamper the cooking oil market growth.
