Cooking Oil Supply for Retailers and Supermarkets
Shelf-ready 1-liter and 5-liter bottles, packed by the case, covering everyday oils, premium olive and avocado oils, and specialty oils for world food aisles.
A good cooking oil aisle covers three needs: value everyday oils, premium oils for health-conscious shoppers, and specialty oils for international cuisines. We supply all three in 1-liter and 5-liter bottles, with lot codes and best-before dates on every bottle.
Mix oils on one quote to fill a full range, and add 20-liter jerrycans for cash-and-carry or trade customers. Private label is available if you want the oil under your own brand.

Compare
How the oils compare
Heat stability reflects how much polyunsaturated fat and omega-3 an oil contains: the less it has, the longer it lasts in a fryer and in finished food. Smoke points are for refined grades, as stated on each oil page.
| Oil | Best for | Heat stability | Smoke point | At room temperature |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sunflower Oil | Everyday best seller | Moderate | About 230 °C / 450 °F | Liquid |
| Canola Oil | Neutral, low saturated fat | Moderate | About 220–230 °C / 430–450 °F | Liquid |
| Corn Oil | Frying and baking at home | Moderate | About 230 °C / 450 °F | Liquid |
| Olive Oil | Everyday and premium | High | Varies by grade | Liquid |
| Avocado Oil | Premium, high-heat cooking | High | Very high (refined) | Liquid |
| Sesame Oil | Asian aisle | Moderate | About 230 °C / 450 °F (refined) | Liquid |
Example
Example order: a first order for a supermarket range
A supermarket building a cooking oil range could start with an everyday oil in 1L bottles, olive oil in 1L bottles and a value 5L size, then add premium and world food oils.
| Oil | Pack | Quantity | Liters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sunflower Oil | 1L Bottles | 40 cases of 12 × 1L | 480 L |
| Olive Oil | 1L Bottles | 20 cases of 12 × 1L | 240 L |
| Canola Oil | 5L Bottles | 15 cases of 4 × 5L | 300 L |
| Total | 1,020 L | ||
An illustration only: your own quantities depend on your menu, equipment and volumes. The minimum is 1,000 liters per quote across all lines.
Good practice
Tips for retailers and supermarkets
- Balance value, premium and specialty oils to cover every shopper.
- Keep oils away from shop windows and lights that speed up rancidity.
- Rotate stock by best-before date, especially omega-3-rich oils.
- Check local labeling rules for nutrition, allergen and origin information.
