Latin America Fats and Oils Market was worth USD 19.62 billion in 2021 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 4.66%, to reach USD 24.64 billion by 2026.
The relevance of fats in human life lies in their high content of energy, which is efficient storage of energy in the smallest possible amount of food substance. The importance of fats doesn’t stop there as the absorption of certain fat-soluble vitamins would be completely impossible without them. They also provide the body with essential fatty acids that the body is unable to synthesize themselves.
Fats also provide a smooth, creamy consistency to many dishes, which translates into a good mouth-feel. Even though fats are tasteless on their own, when added to food products, the improvement in flavour is the reasons why it is in high demand even today. In addition to being important for human and animal nutrition, fats are in high demand even in the technical market. They represent a source of naturally regenerating raw materials which the chemical and pharmaceutical industries can thrive on.
The major driver of the Latin America fats and oils market is rising demand for it in new pastures like industrial, chemical, personal care, animal feed and pharmaceutical industries.
