Looking for palm oil in bulk? Here you’ll find palm oil from Filipino sellers, mostly refined palm olein for cooking and frying, sold by the kilo and in 16 to 18 kg containers for carinderias, food businesses and resellers. Compare the prices below, then message the seller directly.
Palm oil is pressed from the fruit of the oil palm. It is a popular cooking oil in Filipino kitchens and food stalls because it costs less per liter than coconut oil and holds up well in deep frying. Listings here come from resellers and suppliers, and what is available changes over time.
Seller | Location | Price | Pack sizes | Listing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Catalunan Pequeño, Davao City (pick-up only) | ₱96 per kilo | 16 kg container ₱1,536; 18 kg container ₱1,728 |
Prices as listed in October 2026. The seller quotes ₱96 per kilo for pick-up; delivery costs extra and depends on the distance. A liter of palm oil weighs a little over 0.9 kg, so ₱96 per kilo works out to roughly ₱87 per liter, and an 18 kg container holds about 20 liters.
For comparison, a 1-liter bottle of palm cooking oil averaged ₱107.60 in public markets nationwide in September 2026, and ₱93.50 in the Davao Region, the cheapest region, according to Department of Agriculture price monitoring. See palm and coconut cooking oil prices by region.

Palm oil is a vegetable oil, so bottles labelled “vegetable oil” or “cooking oil” can be palm olein. Check the ingredients on the label if you need a specific oil. For coconuts, see the Coconut category.
Keep the container tightly closed in a cool, dark place, away from the stove and direct sunlight
Use a clean, dry ladle or pump when you repack oil from a big container
Check the best-before date on the label, or ask the seller for the production date
Old oil goes rancid: throw it away if it smells sour or like paint
After frying, strain the oil and keep it covered. Throw it away when it turns dark, thick or foamy, or smokes at a low heat
Much of the palm oil sold in the Philippines is imported, mainly from Indonesia and Malaysia. Oil palm is also grown locally, mostly in Mindanao, where Agusan del Sur is one of the biggest growing areas, along with provinces such as Sultan Kudarat, Bukidnon and the Davao provinces, and in Palawan. Local mills press the fruit into crude palm oil, which refineries turn into palm olein.
Carinderias and fried-food stalls buying by the container. Bakeries and snack makers frying banana chips, chicharon and other snacks. Restaurants and caterers. Resellers and sari-sari stores repacking oil into smaller bottles and bags. Soap makers buying palm and palm kernel oil.

Palm olein is the liquid part of refined palm oil. The oil is cooled and filtered to remove the solid part (palm stearin), which leaves a clear, light-yellow oil that stays liquid at room temperature. Most bottled palm cooking oil is palm olein.
No. Palm oil is pressed from the fruit flesh of the oil palm. Palm kernel oil, a different oil, comes from the seed (kernel) inside the fruit.
Refined palm oil and palm olein have a high smoke point, about 230 °C, and a neutral taste, so they are widely used for deep frying.
