In the United Kingdom, palm kernel oil processing is forecasted to remain stable from 2024 to 2025, with an annual output of 7.0 thousand metric tons. A slight decline to 6.0 thousand metric tons is projected for 2026, with stability maintained through 2028. In 2023, production stood at a similar level to the forecasted 2024 value, indicating minimal expected year-on-year variation initially, followed by a reduction of approximately 14.3% from 2025 levels to 2026. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a gradual long-term decline in processing volume.

Future trends to watch for:

Global commodity price fluctuations and their impact on the UK market.
Increased environmental regulations and their effect on production methods.
Potential shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable and traceable palm oil products.
