  • Which edible oils industry is most likely to be impacted in Tanzania?

  • Much of the demand gap is currently met by imported edible oil (60% across all edible oils, 55-70% for sunflower oil) (Salisali, 2017). The GoT wants to reduce Tanzania¡¯s dependence on imported edible oil by boosting domestic oil seed production and downstream oil processing capacity.
  • Should SMEs invest in edible oils in Tanzania?
  • In particular, the team found that large Tanzanian companies are well positioned to make this investment; investors can source raw materials from local SMEs, which would experience higher productivity from rising demand. In late 2017, the USAID team designed a three-phase feasibility study for the edible oils sector.
  • Will reducing the cost of refined sunflower oil help meet local demand?
  • Reducing the cost of refined sunflower oil will help meet local demand. Based on this, the Tanzanian Planning Commission (housed in the Ministry of Finance Planning) asked USAID to help bring industrialization to life and help identify reforms that would catalyze investment to stimulate local production of edible oils.
