Executive Summary

The global UCO market is expected to grow in the forecasted period. The global UCO market will increase from $6.2 billion in 2023 to $10.7 billion through 2028, representing an 11.8% CAGR. North America accounted for 36.0% of all market revenue in 2022, followed by Asia Pacific at 28.0% and Europe at 26.0%. Based on the source of UCO, the food service industry constituted 95.0% of the market share in 2022.

Though UCO is a limited source of feedstock, its supply potential has yet to be attained. This is because the UCO industry supply chain lacks a proper collection network and awareness of UCO collector companies.
