Canada Used Cooking Oil Market Trends:

Increasing usage of modern waste management systems

Modern waste management systems are playing a vital role in expanding the market by enabling efficient, safe, and sustainable collection and processing of waste oil from various sources. With rising waste generation across households in Canada, the need for structured and environmentally responsible waste handling practices is becoming more critical. Canada’s advanced waste infrastructure is facilitating the segregation, storage, transportation, and recycling of used cooking oil, making it easier for both large-scale and small-scale generators to dispose of their waste oil properly. Municipal support, clear regulatory guidelines, and collaboration between public and private sectors have led to the development of organized networks that streamline the collection of used cooking oil. These systems often include designated collection bins, regular pickup schedules, and partnerships with biodiesel producers and recycling companies. Furthermore, digital tracking, automated systems, and data analytics in waste management help optimize the collection process and prevent illegal dumping or improper reutilization. The existence of such infrastructure is encouraging industries and households to participate in the proper disposal of used cooking oil. As a result, with rising emphasis on waste management, the market is set to experience growth in Canada. As per the IMARC Group, the Canada waste management market is set to attain USD 44.1 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.94% during 2025-2033.

Growing demand from foodservice industry

Increasing demand from the foodservice industry is propelling the Canada used cooking oil market growth. According to Restaurants Canada, the foodservice industry in Canada was set to expand to approximately USD 120 Billion in 2024, up 4.9% from 2023. As more Canadians are dining out and relying on prepared meals, foodservice establishments are employing larger quantities of cooking oil, especially for frying and high-volume food preparation. This rise in oil usage naturally results in more frequent disposal, creating a continuous and growing supply of used cooking oil. In response, collection and recycling companies are expanding their operations to partner with foodservice businesses, offering regular pickup services and compliant waste disposal solutions. The foodservice industry’s focus on health, hygiene, and sustainability is also motivating proper handling and disposal of used cooking oil to meet regulatory standards and public expectations. In addition, larger foodservice chains and franchises are implementing structured waste management protocols, ensuring that used cooking oil is safely stored and directed towards recycling or biodiesel production. As the foodservice industry is burgeoning in Canada, particularly in urban centers, it is strengthening the supply chain for used cooking oil and supporting the development of Canada’s circular economy and renewable energy goals.
