Enhanced Distribution Channel

Perum Bulog will begin distributing 35% of Minyakita directly to traders starting January 2026, as per the Ministry of Trade's Regulation No. 43/2025 ¹

. This policy aims to streamline the distribution of cooking oil and potentially stabilize market prices. The distribution will be carried out not only by Bulog but also in collaboration with ID Food, another state-owned enterprise in the food sector.

Implementation Timeline

The new distribution strategy is set to take effect in January 2026. Bulog's CEO, Ahmad Rizal Ramdhani, confirmed that the company is preparing for the implementation, stating that the stock will be received through the Domestic Market Obligation (DMO) mechanism.

Market Impact

This move is expected to improve the availability of Minyakita in the market and potentially reduce price volatility. By distributing directly to traders, Bulog aims to create a more efficient supply chain. The collaboration with ID Food is also seen as a strategic step to enhance the overall distribution network.
