Small-package oil will become a new profit growth point for grain and oil Under the dual pressure of falling soybean prices and sluggish consumer demand, small-package oil at the retail end is nonetheless a rare survivor. As consumption levels rise, the consumption of small-package oil will gradually develop toward segmentation. Sun Zhong, an analyst at China Grain Network, said that the grain and oil industry is indeed at a trough due to the effects of weak commodity prices and the downturn in the catering industry, but this does not mean that grain and oil enterprises can only "sit and wait for death." After brand packaging and marketing investment, small-package oil has more stable prices and is less affected. The consumption of small-package oil is also gradually developing toward segmentation, and enterprises can absolutely find new profit growth points from it.
Industry experts say that the entire grain and oil market is expected to still struggle to improve in 2015, but some high-end small-package oils such as sunflower seed oil and palm oil do indeed have a certain market and are worth enterprises developing.
