Major importers
- France France is one of the largest producers of industrial hemp in Europe, with significant processing capacity for seeds and oil; it is a key EU exporter of hemp products including hemp oil, though trade is often captured under broader hemp seed and vegetable oil categories.[2][5][8]
- Netherlands The Netherlands is an important EU hub for hemp products, with specialized processors and traders; it plays a dual role as producer and re-exporter of hemp seed oil and related derivatives within Europe.[2][5]
- Spain Spain has expanded industrial hemp cultivation for both fiber and seed, with emerging processing into hemp oil for food and cosmetics, largely supplying intra-EU demand.[2][8]
- United States The United States has rapidly expanded hemp cultivation following the 2018 Farm Bill, with significant domestic processing of hemp oil for food and CBD-carrier oils, but it remains a net importer of hemp seed and oil from Canada and Europe, and detailed export volumes are not consistently reported.[5][8]
