The Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) remains optimistic about the stabilization of palm oil exports to the European Union (EU), despite the challenges posed by the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). This is due to the confidence that local exporters can meet the sustainability criteria under the new rules, with up to 90% of palm oil products already being sustainable. The MPOC is also working to close the four identified gaps with the EU in geolocation mapping, e-tracing, labour policies, and definition of deforestation-free, hoping for recognition of the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) certification as a compliance pathway for the EUDR. Despite a decline in palm oil exports to the EU, the MPOC is also exploring new markets in Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia, including Kenya, Turkey, and Uzbekistan, promoting smaller companies to expand into these markets.
