  • Are edible oils a key to the success of Tanzania's agriculture sector?
  • November 2017 2 Context: The study is informed by the Government of Tanzania¡¯s commitment to industrialize the economy, as framed in the latest Five-Year Development Plan, and the identification of the edible oils value chain as key to the success of the agriculture sector Three edible oils studies are being conducted in parallel.
  • Does Tanzania have a potential in the sunflower oil sector?
  • Tanzania has great potential in the sunflower oil seeds sector, which can be scaled-up as one of its key sectors for industrial development.
  • What is the demand gap for edible oil in Tanzania?
  • Much of the demand gap is currently met by imported edible oil (60% across all edible oils, 55-70% for sunflower oil) (Salisali, 2017). The GoT wants to reduce Tanzania¡¯s dependence on imported edible oil by boosting domestic oil seed production and downstream oil processing capacity.
  • Should SMEs invest in edible oils in Tanzania?
  • In particular, the team found that large Tanzanian companies are well positioned to make this investment; investors can source raw materials from local SMEs, which would experience higher productivity from rising demand. In late 2017, the USAID team designed a three-phase feasibility study for the edible oils sector.
