Freshdi Market Insight
Make smarter Cooking Oil sourcing decisions with real market data
United States (9.7%), South Africa (9.2%), and India (7.8%) are among the top supplier countries for 206 Cooking Oil suppliers across 39 countries, with no single origin dominating the base. The typical range is USD 62 - 509 per metric ton FOB, centered at a USD 110 median, meaning buyers should expect wide variation and assess quality and origin carefully. Buyer inquiries fell 30.2% to 308 in the last 30 days. Buyers request CIF more often than suppliers offer it — a 27.8 percentage point gap — so a CIF price must be explicitly asked for.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Cooking Oil gained 61 new listings in the last 30 days, more than double the 23 seen the month before. Compare listing dates when evaluating similar offers to see which one is more current.
Is the market busy?
77 of the 206 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a large share of newcomers. Buyers now have access to a mix of long-standing and new sellers, which expands the pool of options but means some new names have less history to assess. Review each supplier’s listing history before reaching out to a new seller.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Cooking Oil listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 3 October 2026 - 1,313 active listings, 389 buyer requests, 123 source documents, and 652 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Cooking Oil type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Cooking Oil, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 7 days on a rolling 365-day window.
