Earlier Report Observations
Between 2018 and 2023, Guinea's groundnut oil market showed variable production volumes, starting at 110 thousand tons in 2018 and reaching a high of 132.8 thousand tons in 2022 before a slight dip to 127.8 thousand tons in 2023. The initial increase in 2019 and subsequent growth in 2022 were supported by the rehabilitation project of the Dabola oil mill, which aimed to boost local processing capacity and reduce import dependence.
The production decline in 2020 aligned with the end of a significant peanut marketing campaign in Guinea, reflecting the sector's cyclical nature. In 2021 and 2022, commitments from artisanal producers to supply crude oil for refining, alongside Senegal's suspension of imports for certain competing oils, helped sustain demand for Guinean output. However, by 2023, regional market tensions—including lower peanut production in Senegal—contributed to a modest reduction in Guinea's production volume.
