Cooking oils wholesale: procurement guide for professionals

After the tensions on cooking oil markets post-2022, professional distributors have understood the crucial importance of diversifying their sources. Martigane offers quality oils with complete quality documentation and structural multi-sourcing.

Post-2022 crisis landscape

The sunflower oil shortage linked to the conflict in Ukraine highlighted the fragility of single-source supply chains. Serious buyers today work with at least two suppliers and diversified origins: Ukraine, Argentina, Hungary, Romania depending on market availability.

2022 lesson

Distributors who best weathered the 2022 crisis had anticipated with a buffer stock and referenced alternative suppliers. Martigane can help you structure this approach.

Variety comparison

Sunflower oil: the most demanded in French and Belgian retail, neutral in taste and versatile. Rapeseed oil: rich in omega-3, positive nutrition image, highly demanded in the United Kingdom. Olive oil: premium segment in strong growth, volatile price linked to Mediterranean droughts.

Quality criteria and formats

Acidity level is the main freshness indicator: a superior quality oil shows a level below 0.2%. Available formats: 1L bottle (retail standard), 5L and 10L can (HoReCa and collective catering), industrial packaging on request.

Quality guaranteed

All our oil batches are laboratory analysed before shipment. Complete analysis sheet (acidity, peroxide index, humidity) available on simple request.

Cooking oil is a strategic category for any professional distributor. In a market that has experienced turbulence, working with a reliable, multi-origin partner is more essential than ever.
