The global peanut oil market has shown satisfactory growth in the historical period, registering a CAGR value of 3.2%, which was valued at US$ 9.2 Bn in 2019.
The market is expected to grow steadily with increasing awareness of the benefits of peanut oil applications. Peanut oil is considered one of the healthiest cooking oils as it is free from trans-fat and has low saturated fats. Due to the lower proportion of saturated fat, it is gaining traction among health-conscious consumers. Since consumer health consciousness is growing, the consumption pattern of edible oil is also witnessing a tectonic change. This has led the manufacturers to introduce healthy and fortified edible oils. Furthermore, with the rising emergence of modern trade channels across the developing regions, the outreach of edible oil is increasing in these regions.
During the forecast period, the global Peanut Oil market is estimated to show a CAGR of 4.3% to reach a valuation of US$ 14.9 Bn by the end of 2032.
Increased Demand for Cold-Pressed & Organic Variant Peanut Oil
Health-conscious consumers increasingly opt for oils that retain their natural nutrients, antioxidants, and flavors. Unlike refined peanut oil, cold-pressed variants are extracted mechanically without heat or chemicals, preserving essential fatty acids and vitamins. This makes them highly desirable for heart-healthy and chemical-free cooking options.
Additionally, organic peanut oil, which is free from pesticides and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), is becoming increasingly popular, particularly among consumers looking for environmentally friendly and sustainable products. This need has been further stimulated by the rising popularity of natural and clean-label foods, especially in North America and Europe.
Changing Agricultural Conditions Lead To Inconsistent Raw Material Costs.
Changing agricultural conditions significantly impact raw material costs in the peanut oil market. Climate change-induced extreme weather events, such as unpredictable rainfall and temperature fluctuations, disrupt peanut cultivation, leading to inconsistent yields and price volatility. For instance, in 2024, France experienced unprecedented rainfall, resulting in a 30-40% reduction in winter crop production, highlighting the global challenges agriculture faces.
Furthermore, peanut production is threatened by pests and plant diseases, which can occasionally cause significant crop losses. Farmers frequently use fertilizers and insecticides to reduce these risks, but their growing costs of agricultural inputs put further pressure on production costs. The volatility of raw material prices is also influenced by changing land use patterns and government regulations of export bans or farming subsidies.
Introducing fortified peanut oils with added nutrients
Health-conscious consumers are increasingly prioritizing functional foods. Companies can set themselves apart by enriching peanut oil with powerful ingredients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E, and plant sterols. By transforming peanut oil into a nutrient-dense functional oil, businesses can attract a diverse market, including health enthusiasts, fitness aficionados, and aging populations seeking to enhance their well-being. This innovation elevates the culinary experience and positions peanut oil as a superior choice for those committed to a healthier lifestyle.
Government initiatives and regulatory support for nutrition-enriched products further increase the market potential for fortified peanut oils.
Peanut oil is gaining popularity as a key ingredient in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. Crude peanut oil has a high content of vitamin D & E, and also has antioxidant properties, which makes it an excellent ingredient in soap and other skincare products. Peanut oil has a high fat content, which makes it an excellent base for massage oils. Various cosmetic manufacturers use fortified peanut oil as an emollient in skincare and hair care products. Cosmetic manufacturers are making appealing soaps, serums, and other products using flavored plant-based oil with its nutrients retained. The moisturizing characteristics and anti-aging features of high-oleic oils are the key reason for their increasing use in cosmetic products.
Italy accounts for the largest share in the region at around 24%. It is among the top consumers of peanut oil because of its rich culinary traditions, strong preference for premium cooking oils, and desire for healthier substitutes. Peanut oil is used extensively in Italian cooking, particularly for frying, sautéing, and salad dressing. It is well-known for its mild flavor, high smoke point, and nutritional advantages.
China's vast population, long-standing culinary traditions, and growing food sector have made it the region's biggest producer and consumer of peanut oil in East Asia. Peanut oil's neutral flavor, high smoke point, and nutritional advantages make it a popular choice for stir-frying and deep-frying in Chinese homes, restaurants, and food processing businesses. The market share of China in the East Asia region is around 90%.
The natural extraction method, high nutritional value, and growing customer desire for unrefined, chemical-free cooking oils are all contributing factors to the surge in demand for cold-pressed peanut oil worldwide. Cold-pressed peanut oil preserves vital minerals, antioxidants, and a deep taste since it is extracted without the use of heat or chemical solvents, in contrast to refined oils. This makes it appealing to consumers who are health-conscious and looking for natural oils that have undergone little processing.
The global peanut oil market is witnessing intense competition among key players as they focus on advanced processing techniques, product innovation, and strategic investments to strengthen their market presence. Several manufacturers are adding premium, minimally processed varieties to their portfolios in response to the rising demand for cold-pressed peanut oil. Cold-pressed peanut oil meets the growing demand for clean-label and organic products by retaining more nutrients, natural flavors, and antioxidants. To increase productivity and satisfy customer demand for chemical-free oils, companies are investing in automation and state-of-the-art extraction facilities.
Market expansion is being driven by strategic alliances and acquisitions, as companies enter rising areas including Asia-Pacific and Latin America. The worldwide peanut oil industry's competitive environment is being further shaped by ethical production, sustainable sourcing, and innovative branding.
