Market Overview
The ascorbic acid market is projected to register a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period (2020-2025).
- The market has been witnessing an unfair monopoly from China, due to the consolidation of the maximum production of vitamin C in the country. Nonetheless, the country holds high power in setting the global prices of the ingredient, which is a major factor driving the market. However, due to domestic environmental issues, China faced price hikes as high as three times over a year in 2017.
- The paradigm shift from clean-label food and beverage products to dietary supplements has led to the emergence of many manufacturers offering clean-labeled vitamin C supplements to consumers seeking antioxidant support for immune health through supplements. As a result of this, the demand for ascorbic acid has increased in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry.

Key Market Trends
Increasing Demand From Fortified Food and Beverage Application
Consumers primarily in countries, like the United States, India, China, and Germany, among others, are increasingly reaching for dairy-based and other products containing functional ingredients to ward off illnesses or help with existing health issues. This, in turn, has paved the way for manufacturers to penetrate the functional food and beverage sector with innovative bioactive ingredients, including ascorbic acid. Also, various government initiatives are being taken to increase the consumption of fortified food and beverages, especially in developing countries, like China and India. For instance, the promotion of fortified foods by China’s Ministry of Health, coupled with growing health concerns related to age, myopia in adults, and other diseases, is expected to drive the market studied.
