To ensure the supply of refined palm oil production units operating in Cameroon, the government has recently authorized the import of 143,000 tons of crude palm oil. However, although this volume will reduce the structural production deficit now estimated at 160,000 tons annually, according to data from the Oilseed Refiners’ Association

For many years now, as a result of the faster increase in processing capacity than in crude palm oil production capacity in the country, Cameroon has been running an annual structural deficit, which peaked at 160,000 tons in 2022, from 130,000 tons in 2020.
In Cameroon, oil palm plantations cover more than 170,000 ha of national land, including 70,000 ha of industrial plantations and 100,000 ha of village plantations. According to Emmanuel Ngom, an expert at MINADER, the 70,000 ha of industrial plantations produce about 180,000 tons of palm oil, while the 100,000 ha of village plantations produce

According to Business Cameroon, SORAC, which is controlled by businessman Nassourou Alhadji Issa aims to market 100,000 tons of refined oil yearly. According to actors in the palm oil industry, in the first half of 2023 alone, refiners imported around 150,000 tons of palm oil, equivalent to the total volume imported in 2022.
In Cameroon, palm oil contributes to nearly 80% of edible oil demand, 30% of which is estimated to come from non-industrial mills (Frank et al., 2011). Red palm oil, the most widely consumed form, results from partially refined crude palm oil and is high in Vitamin E and alpha- and beta-carotene (Nagendran et al., 2000).

Gone are the days of Cameroon merely importing palm oil—these new entrants herald a transformative shift in the industry’s narrative. SORAC, with its ambition to market 100,000 tons of refined oil annually, stands as a testament to the nation’s commitment to self-sufficiency.

History holds that oil palm was taken from Africa and then introduced to Latin America and Southeast Asia by the end of the 19th century. Today Indonesia and Malaysia alone produce 85% of the world’s crude palm oil (CPO), while Cameroon stands at the 13th position in terms of world production of CPO (www. indexmundi.com).
Cameroon followed with 300,000 tons ahead of DR kenya. So we need to boost production. Stimulus package measures do not lay on the rise in price per kilogram of crude palm oil, but rather on the improvement of national production”. In need to offset the gap, some local processors now set up palm oil plantations.
