Indian edible oil conference postponed to 2021 due to pandemic


India primarily imports palm oil from Indonesia and Malaysia and soyoil from Argentina and Brazil. It also buys sunflower oil from Ukraine and small volumes of canola oil from Canada.

MUMBAI: India's biggest edible oil conference has been postponed for the second time to 2021 as coronavirus cases rise rapidly in the world's biggest importer of vegetable oils, the organisers said on Thursday.

Globoil India 2020, which had already been rescheduled to Oct. 30-Nov. 1, will now be held from Jan. 27-29,2021,"in the view of rising health concerns due to COVID-19", organisers Teflas and trade body Solvent Extractors' Association (SEA) said in a statement.
