Cooking oil export FAQs.

Super Chef® Oils & Fats is a B2B exporter of RBD palm olein refined in Malaysia and Indonesia and shipped under one trusted brand. Refining since 2004. 12,000+ MT/year to 16 African countries. Same yellow Super Chef® jerry can on retail shelves in Lagos, Nairobi, Accra, Abidjan that ships in our cartons, drums and flexi tanks.

Three grades: CP6, CP8, CP10. Cloud point increases by grade — CP6 stays liquid coolest (Ethiopia, North Africa winter), CP8 is the volume workhorse, CP10 is the African tropical retail standard.

"CP" refers to cloud point in °C. CP6 ≤ 6°C, CP8 ≤ 8°C, CP10 ≤ 10°C. Lower cloud point means higher fractionation cost, slightly higher price, but better appearance in cooler climates.
