Sanmark specializes in nutritional oils, plant-based proteins, and other products, which are widely used in fields such as functional foods, cosmetics, pet foods, and pharmaceuticals. Among these products, evening primrose oil ranks first in market share; borage oil and perilla seed oil hold a prominent share in the global market. Meanwhile, Sanmark is also among the top enterprises in China's linseed oil exports. In 2025, Sanmark Avocado Oil, relying on its outstanding quality and consumer trust, won three major certifications in one fell swoop: ranking first in national sales, being the top avocado oil brand in China, and holding the top consumer reputation among avocado oil brands in China, leading comprehensively in sales, brand, and reputation.

Sanmark's business covers the sales of bulk nutritional oils and proteins, private label, and Sanmark own brand bottled oils. It has now formed a "2+4" global production and marketing network, consisting of 2 manufacturing bases-the Global Manufacturing Center in Benxi, China, and the avocado oil production base in Kenya-as well as 4 marketing centers located in Europe, North America, Dalian, and Chengdu. The company supplies products to over 40 countries and more than 700 corporate clients worldwide, and enjoys high visibility in the field of nutritional vegetable oils.
