Global Canola Oil Market

Over the recent years, the global canola oil market has been growing at a healthy rate. Some of the factors which are giving impetus to the market include several health benefits as well as rising applications in the food and non-food sector.

Canola oil refers to a vegetable oil which is acquired from a bright yellow flower of rapeseed. Its emergence can be accredited to the rising need of a cost-effective and healthy oil, particularly in the food industry. This is due to the fact that, in comparison with other oils, canola oil encompasses a significant amount of monosaturated fats. Moreover, canola oil is regarded as a great source of biodiesel. A new research report by IMARC Group, titled “Canola Oil Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023”, estimates that the global canola oil market reached a volume exceeding 30 Million Tons in 2017. The report further projects the market to reach a volume of more than 40 Million Tons by 2023, at a CAGR of approximately 6% over the forecast period.

Global Canola Oil Market Drivers/Constraints:

• Canola oil is trans-fat free in nature and encompasses only small amounts of saturated fats. As a result, it offers various health benefits such as lowering cholesterol, boosting heart health, improving brain function and preventing type-2 diabetes. This represents a major catalyst for the growth of the global canola oil market.
• There has been an expansion in the applications of canola oil in the food industry where it is used for stir-frying, grilling, baking, sautéing, salad dressing and shortening. This is augmenting the demand for canola oil across the globe.
• Moreover, canola oil finds applications in the non-food sector which is further proliferating the market growth. Canola oil is used for preparing plasticisers so as to provide higher velocity as well as in skincare and hair care products for imparting softening properties.
• However, excess consumption of canola oil can increase the intake of unhealthy trans-fat. Apart from this, canola oil has a higher price point in comparison with other oils. This acts as one of the vital factors which is hindering the growth of the canola oil market.
