Romania Cooking and Edible Oils Market 2025

Expected growth in the Romania cooking and edible oils market is projected at USD 129.2 million, reflecting a CAGR of approximately 4% during the upcoming 2025 to 2030 period. Romania’s cooking and edible oils market growth in 2024 was fueled by increasing domestic agricultural production, particularly of sunflower seeds, which supported local oil manufacturing. The government provided subsidies and technical assistance to sunflower farmers, boosting raw material availability for oil processors and reducing dependency on imports. Romanian consumers showed a growing preference for local brands perceived as fresher and more trustworthy, especially in rural and semi-urban areas.

The health and wellness trend was another key driver. As consumers became more aware of the nutritional content of cooking oils, there was a marked increase in demand for oils with high Omega-3 and Vitamin E content, such as linseed and canola oils. Retailers responded by diversifying shelf space to include more high-quality and fortified variants. Additionally, the foodservice industry’s recovery led to increased bulk purchases of edible oils, especially among small restaurants and bakeries. Export opportunities to neighboring Moldova and Bulgaria also incentivized production, making Romania an emerging hub in Eastern Europe’s edible oil trade.
