Where each oil’s raw materials are grown
We buy from the countries best known for growing each crop, so supply stays steady through every season. The lists show major growing countries, in no particular order. Oils marked “milled at origin” are pressed near the source because the fruit or kernel must be processed fresh; we then refine, test and pack them in the United States.

Why it matters
Why we source from many origins
Harvests all year
Northern and southern hemisphere crops are harvested at different times, so fresh raw material is available through the year.
Steady supply
Buying from several countries protects your supply from a poor harvest or disruption in any single region.
One quality system
Whatever the origin, every oil is processed, tested and packed at our own US facilities to the same specification.
Certificate of Analysis
Every order ships with a Certificate of Analysis for each lot.
FAQ
Sourcing questions
Are your oils made in the USA?
We process, test and pack our oils at our own facilities in Tennessee, Mississippi and Oregon, using US-grown crops and raw materials imported from leading growing regions. A few oils, such as palm, coconut, olive and argan oil, are first milled or pressed near the source because the fruit must be processed fresh.
Can I choose the origin of my oil?
Often, yes. Many of our oils can be sourced from more than one growing region, and some buyers need a specific origin for labeling, certification or their own customers. Tell us the origin you need in your quote request, and we will confirm availability, any price difference and which documents can support it.
Do you ship from your sourcing countries?
No. Our warehouses in sourcing countries consolidate raw materials. All finished oils are processed in, and shipped from, the United States.
Do you offer certified sustainable palm oil?
Yes, for the grades listed on our certificate. We hold RSPO certification, and certified palm products are available on request. Tell us in your quote request whether you need RSPO, MSPO or another scheme, and the supply chain model your customer requires, and we will confirm availability for your order.
