Earlier Report Observations

In 2018, the market volume for rapeseed, colza, and mustard oils and their fractions in Iran reached 175.1 thousand tonnes, supported by the entry of new brands such as Tabiat and rising consumer focus on the health benefits of vegetable oils. The market experienced a moderate decline to 164.0 thousand tonnes in 2019, a period marked by stabilized global edible oil conditions. A recovery followed in 2020, with market volume rising to 169.5 thousand tonnes, largely due to the introduction of government support policies that included guaranteed purchase prices for rapeseed and soybean seeds, encouraging expanded domestic cultivation.

From 2021 onward, the market entered a phase of contraction, decreasing to 140.6 thousand tonnes in 2021 and dropping further to 117.4 thousand tonnes in 2022. This occurred alongside continued state price guarantees and growing brand competition within the sector. By 2023, the market volume steadied at 116.7 thousand tonnes, signaling a period of stabilization after several years of decline.
