Although there are numerous advantages associated with coconut fatty acids, high risk of heart and kidney-related diseases due to the consumption of coconut fatty acids, having high cholesterol and large amount of potassium is hampering the sales across food & beverage segment.
In addition to this, growing cost of raw material i.e. coconut, and presence of alternatives such as palm kernel fatty acids, and castor oil fatty acids in the market are impeding the sales of coconut fatty acids.
As per a study by FMI, South Asia is projected to exhibit growth at a robust CAGR in the global market for coconut fatty acids between 2022 and 2032.

As coconut fatty acids are extensively used in textile production, a slew of such developments is anticipated to favor the growth in the market.

Hence, key industry players are aiming at introducing novel products and expanding their production capacity to cater to the surging demand.
