Morocco is a strategic gateway between Africa and Europe, and its growing middle class and fast-expanding food industry are fueling an ever-increasing demand for affordable, high-quality edible oils — particularly refined sunflower oil. Whether you’re an importer in Casablanca, a distributor in Rabat, or a retailer in Marrakech, sourcing sunflower oil in bulk has never been more crucial to staying competitive in 2025.

At Tamila Agrifood, we specialize in supplying premium Iranian refined sunflower oil to clients across North Africa. In this guide, we explore Morocco’s import landscape, current wholesale pricing, required documentation, and why Iranian oil might be your best alternative to European or Southeast Asian brands.

Why Import Iranian Sunflower Oil to Morocco?

As international freight costs rise and the Moroccan government pushes for food affordability and supply diversification, Iran has become a natural trade partner. Here's why:

•    Geographic proximity reduces transit time and cost

•    Competitive pricing vs. EU and Southeast Asia suppliers

•    Halal-certified, cholesterol-free, and non-GMO

•    Flexible packaging for both B2B and B2C markets

•    Port-to-port shipping via the Mediterranean and Suez Canal

Iran’s sunflower oil market is known for balancing cost-efficiency and food safety, making it ideal for both price-sensitive retailers and high-volume food processors in Morocco.

Morocco’s Sunflower Oil Market Outlook – 2025 & Beyond

Morocco imports over 350,000 metric tons of edible oils annually, with sunflower oil accounting for over 60% of total imports. This is driven by:

•    Urban population growth

•    Increasing fast food consumption

•    Government support for affordable food imports

•    Limited domestic oilseed production

Large cities like Casablanca, Fes, Tangier, and Agadir are becoming major consumption hubs, not just for household use but also for bakeries, restaurants, and food manufacturers.
