Global Market Context

The global demand for coconut oil remains a critical source of revenue for emerging economies. The changing landscape of international trade presents both challenges and opportunities for would-be players in the space. Southeast Asia currently dominates the space, with 80% of the global exports market valued at approximately 4 billion as of 2023.


With current trade disputes rekindling interest in transparent, sustainable, and resilient supply chains, Goodgrow has decided to invest in the microscale production of coconut extracts, with the long-term objective of empowering artisans across the globe bring high-quality natural products to market. Notably, Central America and the Caribbean present a significant growth opportunity, as the region’s coconut oil market has shown steady expansion in recent years, with rising production and growing demand in both artisanal and commercial-scale operations.

Space journey

Regional processing in Central America reduces the carbon footprint by minimizing transportation emissions, thereby supporting decarbonization goals.

Trade Conflict Mitigation:
Central America’s proximity to North American markets reduces reliance on trans-Pacific shipping and insulates against geopolitical disruptions.
Local processing expertise and value-added capabilities are developed, strengthening intellectual capital and fostering long-term industry growth.

Goodgrow’s microscale coconut oil production empowers local communities, cuts emissions, and builds processing expertise — delivering sustainable, high-quality products while reducing trade risks and promoting resilient, decentralized growth across global markets.
