PALMOILMAGAZINE, JAKARTA — Crude palm oil (CPO) prices at PT Kharisma Pemasaran Bersama Nusantara (KPBN) Inacom were set slightly lower on Friday (January 23, 2026), even as the broader regional market showed signs of consolidation following recent gains.
KPBN Inacom fixed the CPO price at IDR 14,800 per kilogram, marginally down by IDR 25/kg or around 0.17% compared with Thursday’s level of IDR 14,825/kg. Despite the mild adjustment, domestic prices remained relatively stable, reflecting steady physical demand.
According to information obtained by Palmoilmagazine.com, Franco Dumai CPO was priced at IDR 14,800/kg, while Franco Ngabang, West Kalimantan, was set at IDR 14,450/kg.

Meanwhile, palm oil futures on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange weakened on Friday, pressured by profit-taking activity and a stronger ringgit, which reduced the appeal of Malaysian palm oil for foreign buyers.
Based on a Reuters report, the benchmark April 2026 palm oil contract slipped RM30 per ton, or 0.71%, to RM4,167 per ton during the midday break. Despite the intraday decline, the contract was still on track to post a weekly gain of about 2.6%, marking a potential third consecutive week of advances.
Movements in other vegetable oils were mixed and relatively limited. The most active soyoil contract in Dalian inched up 0.07%, while Dalian palm oil futures eased 0.04%. In the United States, soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) edged down 0.07%, offering little external support to the palm oil market.
In KPBN’s tender results on Friday (January 23, 2026), excluding VAT, the following prices were recorded:
CPO
- Franco Dumai: IDR 14,800/kg – KJA, PAA
- Franco Ngabang, West Kalimantan: IDR 14,450/kg – EUP
Palm Kernel (PK)
- Loko PKS Talang Lebar: IDR 11,652/kg (WD)
Highest bid: IDR 10,980/kg – SAP
Overall, market participants remain cautious, balancing expectations of sustained demand against currency movements and ongoing profit-taking after the recent rally in global palm oil prices. (P2)
