Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2020, the sesame oil market in Jordan was shaped by consistent government support for local pressing projects and protectionist trade policies that limited imports. This environment encouraged investment in domestic production capabilities, with long-standing companies such as Jordan Vegetable Oils Factories playing a central role in supplying the local and regional markets.

A slight downturn in market volume occurred in 2021, a year that saw emerging regulatory challenges in Jordan's chemical and cosmetic industries, which could impede the production and marketing of natural oils.

The market then entered a phase of strong expansion from 2022 to 2023. This growth was propelled by widespread adoption of modern, automated oil pressing machines that improved efficiency and product quality, alongside a rising consumer preference for organic and extra virgin sesame oil free from pesticides and harmful chemicals.
