Palm oil has been part of the food industry for over 5,000 years and now plays a significant role in the markets of 130 countries around the world. According to ISTA Mielke GmbH, every third kilogram of oil consumed by humans is palm oil.

The semi-solid properties of palm oil make it a very popular ingredient. It is used in cooking fats, margarine, noodles, bread, chocolate, coffee, coffee creams, and ice cream.
