What Type of Cooking Oil Will Witness a Hike in Demand?

“Soy Oil Projected to Account for Dominant Market Share”

Based on product type, the market for cooking oil is segmented into soy oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, palm oil, olive oil, canola oil, coconut oil, and sesame oil.

High yield in small plantation areas also makes palm oil a favorite choice for manufacturers and farmers alike and thus, drives its popularity going forward.
