Summary

The global fats & oils market is estimated to be valued at USD 271.8 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 323.7 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 3.6%.
The fats and oils market is today hedged by new scientific discoveries and health benefits being unlocked for particular oils. Trends in diets have been remade, and consumer preferences have been altered. For example, a large study published by JAMA Network Open in February 2024 reported that the intake of seven or more grams of olive oil per day was associated with a 28% reduction in death rates from dementia in American adults. This underlines the increased sensitivity to dietary practices as an important factor in containing age-related cognitive decline.
It's not only the taste/culinary aspect; some consumers prefer their oil for its potential health effects. Manufacturers are thus catching up to the demands, changing consumer preferences with regard to the kinds of oils used in food production to match and align with health-orientated choices. Accordingly, with scientific validation of its benefits, the marketplace for healthier oils grows in demand, restructuring the landscape of the fats and oils industry.
“Soybean oil among vegetable oil types emerges as the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period.”
Soybean oil has emerged as the fastest-growing segment among vegetable oils in the global fats and oils market, particularly driven by its diverse applications across various industries. Soybean oil consumption in the United States indeed mirrors its pivotal role in some of the important sectors. For example, in the food industry, soybean oil has large uses in margarine and salad or cooking oils, where MY2022/23 consumption figures stand at 114.27 thousand metric tons and 3.60 million metric tons respectively, according to the United Soybean Board. This makes it an important all-around ingredient for cooking and general food preparation.
Apart from the food sector, soybean oil has significant applications in various other industrial sectors. For example, in the case of biofuel production, it is very commonly used and has a large contribution to environmental sustainability efforts; the consumption figures reach 5.67 million MT for MY 2022/23. Also finding a place in soybean oil are lubricants, working fluids, paints, coatings, inks polyols, plastics, and a wide array of solvents and specialty chemicals, all running into good quantities of consumption. That it has had the ability to grow at these rates underlines soybean oil's versatility and increasing adaptability in these multiple industries, driven by its propitious properties and fast-growing recognition worldwide as a viable and sustainable alternative to food and industrial applications. That growth in soybean oil consumption underlines more than any other statistic its key role in determining the future character of the global fats and oils market.
“Food application is the dominant market in the fats & oils market.”
Apart from flavor and texture, fats and oils in cookery, baking, and preservation of foods generally play dual roles with added functions in the line of nutrition and shelf-life extension. Their domain of applicability within the food industry is very wide, covering frying, sautéing, emulsification, and improvement in the texture of bakery and confectionary products. For example, soybean oil, sunflower oil, and palm oil have very high smoke points and are found in continuous use at high temperatures in frying. This makes them perfect for the production of crispy textures with fried foods while maintaining quality over successive cycles of frying, which is important in commercial food service operations.
They are core ingredients in food processing and used as carriers of fat-soluble vitamins, antioxidants, and flavors. Further, they provide a base for spreads, sauces, dressings, and processed meat applications through their effects on mouthfeel, stability, and general sensory appeal in the formulation of such products. Success in mayonnaise, for example, relies on oils that provide both the creamy texture and emulsification function to ensure consistent quality and taste. This is associated with a very broad span of uses for culinary techniques, food processing, and product formulation in underpinning their place in the regard of consumer expectations for taste, texture, and nutritional value across a broad span of foodstuffs. Changing consumer preferences in terms of health and sustainability mean that innovation in the fats and oils market is not at an end, as it introduces new formulations and sources that can help meet consumer demand while delivering the core functionality in food applications.
