Palm Oil Production in Cameroon - ArcGIS StoryMaps
On September 28, 2020, the illegal clear-cutting of indigenous Begyeli ancestral lands began in a biodiversity hotspot in coastal Cameroon. Cameroun Vert SARL (Camvert) is owned by logger Aboukabar al Fatih, who is close to Cameroon’s ruling party. Camvert oversees the largest monoculture palm oil plantation in Central Africa (50,000 hectares of forest) for a production of about 180,000
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.
On the road to sustainable palm oil production in Cameroon

Although Cameroon, the largest palm oil producer in Central Africa, produced more than 450,000 tons in 2020, it still imports about 60,000 tons a year to meet its domestic demand. Most of the imported palm oil comes from Indonesia, Malaysia and Gabon. For several years, Cameroon has been faced with a dilemma
According to the ASROC, the yearly crude palm oil demand from industrial crude palm oil processing units, whose number is growing, now exceeds a million tons. However, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, local supply has risen from 343,000 tons in 2014 to 413,000 tons in 2018.
Palm oil processing sector in Cameroon now has new refinery
5 Shares. (Business in Cameroon) - Raffinerie Pacific is the new palm oil refinery recently opened in Cameroon with an initial capital of 100 million FCFA. This company will be working in the processing and sale of palm oil as well as the manufacturing of other bi-products such as margarine, candles, hand/body lotion and soap.
Four trailblazing palm oil refiners are set to join the ranks of the industry, marking a significant step forward in harnessing local resources for agricultural growth. This groundbreaking development, driven by the establishment of new refineries, presents a beacon of hope amid raw material challenges and promises to reshape the trajectory of Cameroon’s oil landscape.
Cameroon: Actual demand for palm oil exceeds 1mln tons, driven by
In need to offset the gap, some local processors now set up palm oil plantations. This is the case of Nana Bouba group, which launched a project in 2016 to plant 30,000 hectares of oil palm trees in the coastal region to supply its Azur SA refinery, which specializes in refining palm oil and producing household soap.

The Republic of Cameroon has committed to the long-term governance of the sustainable development of palm oil with a national platform. The platform, PLANHUPAD, was created to ensure the continuing viability of commitments made as part of the African Palm Oil Initiative. H. E.

Sustainable palm oil in Cameroon - ZSL
Up to 20 million hectares of new oil palm plantations could be established in this region over the next decade. In Cameroon’s forested zone alone, over 1 million hectares is now being targeted by oil palm companies. This cultivation would generate much-needed development in Africa and increase global food supplies.
Cameroon, Africa’s third-biggest palm-oil producer, plans to start using higher-yielding seeds to help raise production by 26 percent over the next three years. The new seeds will be planted over an additional 30,000 hectares (74,141 acres) of land and are expected to boost production to 290,000 metric tons a year, compared with 230,000 tons now.
- How much palm oil is produced in Cameroon?
- In Cameroon, palm oil is produced across three plantation types or scales: approximately 120,000 tons come from agro-industrial plantations (58,860 ha), 30,000 tons from supervised smallholder plantations (35,000 ha), and an estimated 80,000 tons from independent smallholdings (100,000 ha).
- Could new oil palm plantations be established in Cameroon?
- Up to 20 million hectares of new oil palm plantations could be established in this region over the next decade. In Cameroon¡¯s forested zone alone, over 1 million hectares is now being targeted by oil palm companies. This cultivation would generate much-needed development in Africa and increase global food supplies.
- Can Cameroon develop a sustainable palm oil industry?
- We are working to demonstrate that Cameroon, one of the most biodiverse countries in Africa and a new frontier for oil palm expansion, can develop a sustainable palm oil industry, avoiding negative environmental impacts.
- Will 20 million hectares of oil palm plantations be established in Africa?
- 20 million hectares of new oil palm plantations could be established in west and central Africa over the next decade. We're together with the Cameroon government and industry to promote sustainable palm oil and protect biodiversity.
