Despite strong growth in sunflower seed production, the level of edible oil processing in TZ is low compared to prevailing demand (est. at 300,000 – 400,000 tons a year). Much of the demand gap is currently met by imported edible oil (60% across all edible oils, 55-70% for sunflower oil) (Salisali, 2017).
thus making sunflower oil the most important vegetable oil produced in Tanzania. While the production of sunflower oil seeds varying between 75,000 to 100,000 tons from year 2001 to 2005, it increased in the last two seasons dramatically to more than 350,000 tons since 2006 (Figure 1).

Feasibility Study for the Edible Oils Sector in Tanzania
5 Sunflower oil provides the strongest opportunity to expand domestic edible oils production, and has potential for high-value exports Notes:*Consumption is used as a proxy for demand, and estimated as production + imports –exports; Estimated values based on extrapolation of 2009-13
Tanzania has significantly increased production of oilseeds since 2010, but continues to import edible oil and processed oil-based products while South Africa has established capabilities in
Edible Oil Production – Tanzania Investment Centre
USD 100 million, USD 1 billion. Ticket Size. Less than USD 500,000. Business Model Description. Provide and operate machinery and technology for the commercial processing of high value field crops, such as marula, sunflower, avocado and palm, into refined and double refined edible oil for local consumption and export through a public-private
Sunflower oil comprises 83% of total edible oils produced in Tanzania but meets only 30% of demand. The approach In late 2017, the USAID team designed a three-phase feasibility study for the edible oils sector. The objective of the study was to help the country attract investors with an interest in refining local sunflower oil for low-income
Tanzania’s sunflower oil producers come into bloom | UNIDO
Tanzania’s sunflower oil producers come into bloom. With an annual output of around 350,000 tons of sunflower oilseeds, corresponding to about 90,000 tons of oil, Tanzania is one of the top ten sunflower oilseed producers in the world. Sunflowers are grown all over the country, mostly by small-scale farmers.
A further pivotal decision to improve competitiveness was at least maintaining the import tariff on palm oil – 10 percent for crude palm oil and 25 percent for refined palm oil. These tax and tariff changes have put Tanzania on the path to transforming the entire sector by prompting investors to pursue hybrid seed production, processing
This is how Tanzania can meet edible oil challenges
Mtwara. The government has decided put emphasis on the cultivation of large scale farming to among other things, meet the demand of edible oil in the country. Presenting the budget of the ministry of Agriculture for the year 2022/23, Agriculture minister Hussein Bashe said the demand for edible oil in the country stood at 650,000 tons per annum
Country Context: Tanzania. Tanzania’s agriculture sector constitutes 30% of the country’s GDP1 and employs nearly two-thirds of the population.2 The primary cash crops are tobacco, cashew nuts, coffee, tea, cloves, cotton and sisal.2. The local and regional market for edible oils is large and growing – but local supply is not keeping up.
