Myanmar possesses a rich agricultural base with significant production of groundnuts and sesame. However, much of the local extraction remains fragmented, relying on outdated small-scale equipment that suffers from low oil recovery rates and high energy consumption, limiting the economic potential of rural farmers.
The humid tropical climate of Myanmar poses specific challenges for seed storage and processing. There is a growing demand for an oil pressing machine that can handle varying moisture levels without compromising the chemical stability of the extracted oil.
As the domestic market shifts toward healthier, refined cooking oils, the industry is witnessing a surge in the adoption of professional machinery to replace manual labor, focusing on consistency, hygiene, and scalability to meet urban demand in Yangon and Mandalay.
