Over the forecast period, edible oils is expected to grow strongly in retail volume and value (constant 2022 prices) terms, driven particularly by improved economic conditions and a more stable exchange rate, which should help to offer some stability to unit prices. Population growth, particularly in urban areas, is also predicted to drive sales growth, especially as this category is perceived to be essential for the Nigerian cuisine, which significantly features fried food, such as fried meat, fried bean cake (akara), and fried yam/potato and eggs.
Consisting largely of groundnut oil and vegetable oil made from palm olein (the liquid component of palm oil), “other” edible oil dominates retail sales. These products are traditionally popular for frying and making various rice delicacies.
Unknown traditionally in Nigeria, olive oil is becoming more popular due to Westernisation trends, which is leading to greater visibility in modern retail channels. The presence of olive oil on retailers’ shelves is set to increase as the economy improves over the forecast period.
