Introduction

As consumer preferences shift toward natural, chemical-free, and traditional food products, the global demand for Indian ghee and wood-pressed oils is surging. In 2025, five specific markets are projected to lead in terms of import volume, premium pricing, and retail penetration for Indian-origin oils. Manjulam Impex, a trusted name in export-quality ghee and oils, is already aligned with buyer expectations in these regions.

United States – Premium Wellness Focus

The USA continues to be the largest importer of Ayurveda-inspired wellness foods, including A2 ghee and wood-pressed coconut and almond oils. With a rising population of health-conscious consumers, there’s strong demand in Indian ethnic stores, organic supermarkets, and even mainstream retail chains.

  • High demand for A2-certified ghee.

  • Growth in private-label ghee and oil brands.

  • Amazon and Walmart sourcing bulk quantities.

Manjulam Impex Advantage:
FDA-compliant labeling, small and bulk-size packaging, and organic certifications make exports to the US hassle-free.

United Arab Emirates – Tradition Meets Trend

The UAE market blends Indian tradition with global food innovation. Ghee is used both in Indian cooking and in Middle Eastern sweets. Similarly, wood-pressed mustard and sesame oils are gaining popularity among Indian expats and Arab households.

Key Trends:

  • Strong Ramadan and festive-season demand.

  • Growing market for non-refined oils in Horeca.

  • Product registrations required with Dubai Municipality.

Manjulam Impex Advantage:
We support UAE buyers with Halal certification, custom documentation, and Arabic labeling for easy compliance.

Australia – Clean Label Boom

Australia’s clean-label movement is pushing retailers to prefer wood-pressed, minimally processed oils. Ghee is being marketed as a dairy superfood, especially among yoga and paleo food consumers.

Key Trends:

  • Ghee positioned as a dairy alternative.

  • Cold-pressed oils replacing vegetable oils in retail shelves.

  • Preference for recyclable packaging.

Manjulam Impex Advantage:
Our eco-friendly jars, clean labeling, and flexible MOQ options support both retail and bulk importers.

Germany – Organic and Ayurvedic Surge

Germany is Europe’s hub for Ayurveda products, and both ghee and coconut oil are trending. German buyers are strict on residue limits, organic sourcing, and EU compliance documentation.

Key Trends:

  • Ayurvedic practitioners recommending ghee.

  • Supermarkets stocking vegan and organic ghee variants.

  • Need for EU-compliant certificates (COA, Organic, FSSAI).

Manjulam Impex Advantage:
We provide complete export documentation, batch testing reports, and work with EU importers on product registration.

Singapore – Health + Convenience

Singapore’s market is small but influential. With a high-income consumer base and significant Indian population, there’s growing demand for ghee and value-added oil products, especially in convenience packaging.

Key Trends:

  • Rising demand for spout pouch coconut oil and small-pack ghee jars.

  • Strict SFA regulations for food imports.

  • Preference for traceable, certified supply chains.

Manjulam Impex Advantage:
We offer customized packaging, SFA-ready documentation, and stable shelf-life solutions for tropical climates.
