In the global edible oils market, discerning business professionals seek more than just a commodity; they seek a reliable partner capable of delivering consistent quality, volume, and value. For enterprises across Southern and Eastern Africa, that partner is Tanko Group Limited, Tanzania’s leading producer and exporter of refined sunflower oil. From our state-of-the-art facilities in Dar es Salaam, we have established an unparalleled reputation as the number one source for premium, nutritious, and versatile sunflower oil for sale, serving a growing international clientele with integrity and excellence.
Sunflower oil’s ascent to become the world's fourth most widely used cooking oil is no accident. Its popularity is rooted in a powerful combination of health benefits, culinary flexibility, and industrial utility. This pale yellow oil, extracted from the seeds of the sunflower, stands out for its exceptionally high proportion of polyunsaturated fats and low levels of saturated fat. This favorable lipid profile aligns perfectly with modern nutritional science, which champions oils that support heart health without compromising on taste or performance. Furthermore, our refined sunflower oil is a rich natural source of Vitamin E, one of nature's most potent antioxidants. This vitamin plays a crucial role in protecting the body's cells from oxidative damage, thereby supporting the immune system and contributing to overall wellness, including a reduced risk of heart disease.
What truly sets Tanko Group’s product apart in a competitive market is our meticulous refinement process. We produce a perfectly clean oil that meticulously preserves vital nutrients while removing impurities. The result is an oil with a neutral flavour and aroma, making it an ideal, unobtrive base for a vast array of culinary applications. Its relatively high smoke point makes it exceptionally versatile, suitable for everything from gentle salad dressings and sautéing to shallow frying and high-temperature cooking processes in food manufacturing. This neutrality is a significant advantage for food producers, as it does not overpower the inherent flavours of other ingredients, whether in canned goods, baked products, or prepared meals.
Beyond the kitchen, the applications of our refined sunflower oil are extensive. Through hydrogenation, it serves as a key raw material in the production of margarine and solid cooking fats. Its stable properties and clean composition also make it a valuable ingredient in non-food sectors, including the manufacture of soaps, cosmetics, and even in the paint and varnish industries. This diversity of use underscores the economic value and versatility that Tanko Group delivers to its business partners.
Our commitment to quality is not merely stated; it is rigorously quantified and certified. Every batch of Tanko sunflower oil meets exacting international standards, as evidenced by our ISO and HACCP certifications. These credentials assure our clients of a product manufactured under the most stringent food safety and quality management systems. Our specifications speak for themselves:
Physical Purity: Exhibiting no residue at 40°C and passing a rigorous cold test of 48 hours at 0°C, guaranteeing clarity and stability.
Superior Taste and Odour: A neutral, excellent taste with no sensed odour, ensuring consumer acceptance.
Optimal Chemical Profile: With Free Fatty Acids (FFA) maintained at a maximum of 0.1% and peroxide value at a minimal 0.2 meq/kg, our oil ensures an extended shelf life of 12 months without the need for hydrogenation, preserving its natural health benefits.
Nutritional Excellence: A fatty acid composition rich in unsaturated fats (87-91%) and a powerful 900kcal per unit of feeding energy.
Understanding the diverse needs of our global B2B clients, Tanko Group offers unparalleled flexibility in packaging and branding. We supply refined sunflower oil in bulk volumes via road tankers for large-scale industrial users, as well as in standardized or custom-sized PET bottles for retail-ready distribution. Furthermore, we provide custom design print labels and packaging boxes upon request, enabling our partners to market the product under their own brand with the guaranteed quality of Tanzanian sunflower oil as its foundation.
Logistics and trust are the cornerstones of any successful international partnership. Our primary markets include the neighbouring nations of Zambia, Zimbabwe, Eswatini, South Africa, and Botswana, with a well-established supply chain ensuring efficient delivery. We commit to a swift 7-14 day turnaround after payment, with land transportation via 33-ton trucks ensuring delivery within approximately 5 days. Most importantly, we believe in transparency and building lasting relationships.
