The lecithin market in Equatorial Guinea includes products used as emulsifiers, stabilizers, and nutritional supplements in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. The demand for lecithin is driven by its applications in health and wellness products and its use as a natural additive in food processing.
The lecithin market in Equatorial Guinea is driven by the increasing use of lecithin as a food and feed additive. As the countrys food processing industry expands and consumer demand for processed and convenience foods grows, lecithin is sought for its emulsifying properties. The growing awareness of lecithin`s health benefits, including its role in improving cholesterol levels and brain health, further fuels the market.
The lecithin market is constrained by limited awareness of lecithin applications in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Import dependency leads to high prices, and the market also lacks regulatory clarity on lecithin usage, which affects adoption. Additionally, the lack of local production facilities makes it challenging for the market to expand.
The Equatorial Guinean government has introduced agricultural policies that support local lecithin production, mainly from soy and sunflower. These policies focus on increasing the domestic production of lecithin to reduce dependence on imports, which aligns with broader goals of agricultural self-sufficiency and sustainable practices in food production.
