Rising popularity of high-protein diets and protein-maxxing has lifted demand for whey protein dietary supplements. US dairy processing capacity constraints and specialized filtration bottlenecks have tightened availability, pushing whey protein prices firmly upward.
Rising U.S. demand for Korean cosmetics, fueled by retail expansion and social media, is accelerating. The category's lower price points compared with prestige skincare risk pulling down average spending in the cosmetics market as consumers shift toward more affordable options.
During the second quarter of 2026, avocado oil prices moved slightly lower as stronger avocado availability and expanding processing capacity improved supply conditions. According to USDA, Kenya’s 2026 avocado crop was forecast at 727,000 MT, up 4.8%, supporting greater availability of fruit for oil processing and exports. Additionally, expansion of avocado oil production in the previous year had enhanced Kenya's position as a new emerging producer. In the United States, Fresh-avocado values declined through June as supply improved, reducing raw-material pressure for processors using lower-grade or surplus fruit. The market nevertheless remained supported by steady food, cosmetics and personal-care consumption, while premium cold-pressed and certified grades continued to command stronger buyer interest than standard material. Competing edible-oil markets also provided some cost support. According to FAO, the Vegetable Oil Price Index increased 3.8% from May to June, driven mainly by firmer palm and rapeseed oil quotations, which limited the downside for premium specialty oils.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, avocado oil prices are expected to remain stable to slightly soft as improving crop availability supports processing supply, while steady premium-oil demand and firmer competing vegetable oils prevent a sharper decline.

During Q1’26, avocado oil prices remained balanced as a stronger avocado supply offset pressure from elevated freight and logistics costs. USDA projected Mexico’s avocado production to rise by nearly 3% to around 2.8 million metric tons in 2026, while exports were forecast to increase by approximately 7% to about 1.3 million metric tons, supported by sustained global demand and improved growing conditions. Improved fruit availability reduced feedstock tightness for avocado oil manufacturers, particularly in North America, where Mexico remained the primary supply base. Demand from cooking oils, salad dressings, premium food products, cosmetics, skin care formulations, and nutraceutical applications stayed stable throughout the quarter, although buyers maintained cautious procurement due to sufficient inventories. Freight and insurance costs increased significantly after the Iran war and Strait of Hormuz disruption, raising transportation and packaging costs across agricultural supply chains and limiting deeper market corrections. Export-oriented producers also faced higher logistics expenses due to elevated marine war-risk premiums and vessel disruptions in global shipping routes.
Avocado Oil is an edible oil pressed from the fruit of the avocado tree. It is utilised as an ingredient in several dishes, and as a cooking oil. It can also be used for other purposes like lubrication and in cosmetics, where it is valued for its supposed regenerative and moisturising properties.
It has a high smoke point and it is a good source of monounsaturated fats and vitamin E. Avocado Oil is characterised by emerald green colour. The refined Avocado Oil barely has a smell, but the unrefined Avocado Oil smells nutty.

In order to produce Avocado Oil, ripped avocado is pressed and the oil is recovered from it mechanically. The skin and stone (seed) is removed and after this, the flesh is ground to a paste and then malaxed for 40-60 minutes and 45-50°C.
