Description
Crude Palm Oil (CPO) is the world's most produced and traded vegetable oil, extracted from the mesocarp of oil palm fruit. As a versatile and cost-efficient commodity, CPO is used extensively in food manufacturing, oleochemicals, and biofuel production. Fawad Trading Group sources CPO primarily from Indonesian and Malaysian producers — the two largest palm oil producing nations globally — ensuring consistent quality and reliable supply.
We also supply RBD Palm Olein in three grades (CP6, CP8, CP10) to meet the specific needs of retail, food service, and industrial buyers across different markets and climates.
Key Applications
- Edible oil for cooking and frying.
