Iraq Cooking and Edible Oils Market 2025

The Iraq cooking and edible oils market is projected to expand significantly, increasing from USD 836.7 million in 2024 to USD 1,539.8 million by 2030, reflecting a robust CAGR of 10.7% during the forecast period. Iraq’s edible oil consumption landscape is heavily shaped by post-conflict economic rebuilding and a population with strong ties to traditional cooking. Meals are often prepared from scratch in large portions for extended families, with oils playing a central role in recipes. This persistent reliance on oil-based cooking practices maintains steady household-level demand, particularly in regions where the foodservice sector is still catching up to formal retail infrastructure.

Urbanization and a demographic bulge among younger Iraqis are gradually modifying food habits. Exposure to global dietary trends through satellite media and social platforms is fostering new expectations around food quality and health. While economic challenges continue to limit discretionary spending, consumer interest in oil products with health-linked branding—such as low trans fat or light flavor profiles—is on the rise in major cities like Baghdad, Basra, and Erbil. The oil category is beginning to reflect a bifurcated market where both volume-driven, value-centric segments and aspirational, health-conscious consumers coexist, often within the same household.
