- Press Release -

Rockville, Md. The global rapeseed oil market is set to reach US$ 16.8847 Bn by 2022 on steady growth, according to Fact.MR, as awareness of its health benefits spreads and consumers shift from animal fats toward vegetable oils. Prized for its high omega-3 content and low saturated fat, rapeseed oil is drawing demand in developing markets in particular, alongside its established use in food and cosmetics.

Europe is the most lucrative region, processed oil leads the product mix, and modern trade dominates distribution. Specialty stores and foodservice are the fastest-growing pockets.

Products, Channels and End Use

Processed oil holds more than 65% of revenue in 2017 and gains further share, while virgin oil grows slowly and holds steady. On distribution, modern trade keeps the largest revenue share despite easing growth, while specialty stores expand fastest at a 4.6% CAGR and online rises alongside them. By end use, foodservice grows at a 4.3% CAGR and competes closely with a fast-rising retail segment.

Europe stays the most lucrative region, aiming to preserve its lead, with Asia Pacific excluding Japan showing strong growth potential behind it.

Health Trends Drive Demand

The market runs on wellness. As more consumers manage cardiovascular concerns and seek healthier dietary fats, rapeseed oil's nutritional profile keeps it in favour, and rising awareness of its benefits continues to lift consumption through the forecast period.
