The specialty fats and oils market is set to experience growth propelled by the increasing consumption of packaged food. Packaged food, shielded from direct environmental contact by impermeable or permeable wrapping, has gained favor among consumers seeking healthier, readily available, and tasty options. Specialty oils and fats, offering nutritional and functional benefits, align with the preferences for low-fat and healthier packaged foods. In 2021, South Korea emerged as a significant global importer of packaged agri-food and seafood products, with Canada ranking as its ninth-largest supplier, achieving a growth rate of 11.9% from 2017 to 2021. The retail income of packaged food in South Korea reached US$35.3 billion in 2021, primarily driven by categories like rice, pasta, noodles, dairy, processed meat, and seafood. This surge in packaged food consumption directly influences the demand for specialty fats and oils.
Rising health consciousness among consumers is slated to further propel the specialty fats and oils market.

Additionally, these products offer benefits such as promoting healthy gut bacteria and aiding digestion. A survey by Public Health England in January 2021 revealed that approximately 80% of adults aged 18 and above have committed to embracing a healthy lifestyle, with 40% prioritizing healthy eating habits.
