La apuesta por las semillas oleaginosas

Oilseed plants are those whose seeds or fruits can be processed to extract oil for either industrial or edible applications. One of the defining characteristics of these value chains is the close integration between farmers and industry, particularly in the production of oils for food applications.

At Sesajal®, we are involved in the cultivation, harvesting, and processing of oilseed-based products. Because we want you to feel part of this great family, we believe it is important to highlight the factors that have made oilseeds an increasingly attractive opportunity for the agricultural and commercial sectors.

In recent years, global oilseed production has continued to grow in response to significant increases in yields, as well as the expansion of cultivated areas.

The international market for oilseed-based products is divided into three segments: oils, seeds, and oilseed meals.

Of these segments, oils are the largest and most dynamic, followed by seeds and oilseed meals. At Sesajal®, we focus on the first two, leveraging their nutritional value and broad range of applications.

Current food market conditions create opportunities to increase domestic oilseed production through contract farming models. There is also a specific opportunity in the gourmet and nutraceutical food segments, where there is growing demand for oils with specific characteristics, including avocado, chia, peanut, and sesame oils, among others. This creates favorable conditions for expanding cultivation and commercialization, and at Sesajal®, we are committed to making the most of this opportunity by offering high-quality products to the domestic market.

We decided to invest in this sector to help expand the production and consumption of quality products both within Mexico and internationally, including our oils, seeds, and other oilseed-based products.

We recognized an investment opportunity that allowed us to design an oilseed cultivation program, creating employment opportunities in agriculture as well as across the many areas that make up the agribusiness value chain.

At Sesajal®, we believe it is essential to continue developing programs that promote and provide training for the cultivation of these seeds, incorporating contract farming models that offer advantages for both producers and industrial partners.

At Grupo Sesajal®, we are committed to sustainable transformation. We use advanced technology throughout every stage of our processes and bring our expertise to every product that reaches our customers. We offer innovative products, promote comprehensive food solutions, and support our customers in process standardization and recipe optimization.
