Oils derived from food products have always played an immense role in Indian cuisine. These oils are put to all types of uses and can make cooked food delectable. That is why it is one of those evergreen businesses that are never likely to suffer from purple patches. However, much like any other product, a trader in food oils must understand its various intricacies.
View moreLet us look at some of these intricacies that one must be aware of when trading in food oil products:
Different food oils have different properties and nutritional values. Some varieties of food oils include avocado oil, corn oil, canola oil, coconut oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, peanut oil, walnut oil, grapeseed oil, etc.
As mentioned above, food oil products are always in demand among household users for various purposes. Apart from that, they also find uses in industries like the food and beverage industry, cosmetics industry, personal care industry, livestock industry as animal feed, biodiesel production, physiological therapies, eco-friendly lubricants for machinery and equipment, textile and leather industry, candle-making, industrial cleaning, etc.
In many of these industries, food oils can act as eco-friendly alternatives for currently more popular alternatives (like machine oils, synthetic materials, etc.). As businesses are increasingly under pressure to adopt greener practices, the demand for food oils as a greener alternative is likely only to increase over time.
Like any other food product, food oil products must only be of the highest quality. You may also want to look for products certified by quality-accreditation agencies like ISO (International Organisation for Standards). Apart from that, you must ensure that the food products meet the regulatory requirements for the market you intend for them; for example, some markets may need the approval of the FDA (Food and Drug Authority).
Moreover, you may want to go for organic products. Organic oils are those that don’t have artificial products used at any stage of their production, including the production of the food item from which they are made.
Food oils are liquid in a form that may get easily spoiled. That required the use of good packaging material and ensuring proper storage for them, whether in warehouses or during transportation.
Not all food oils traded in India are in demand in all parts of the country. Thus, it would be best if you studied the demand patterns of your intended market and only get oils that are likely to sell in it.
