Vitamins and Dietary Supplements Industry Supply Intelligence Report: Rising Popularity of Herbal Vitamins and Dietary Supplements to Propel Global Industry Growth

SAN FRANCISCO, March 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The global vitamins and dietary supplements market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2020 to 2025 capsules and tablets being the most consumable dosage form of supplements. Powder is expected to become the fastest growing dosage form from 2020 to 2025 with an expected CAGR of 6.4% from 2020 to 2025.

Multivitamins have traditionally been used as supplements with food to improve nutritional qualities and reduce health problems, such as osteoporosis and arthritis. With the onset of COVID, there has been a public idea that vitamins might reduce the severity of symptoms (although not a cure) for COVID. Multivitamin manufacturers are taking advantage of this and the demand for multivitamins has increased since 2020. Overall, the vitamins and dietary supplements market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2020 to 2025. However, over the time, these myths have been debunked by several studies. For example, the NCBI has published articles stating that CBD supplements are not a cure for coronavirus or any other disease caused by coronavirus infection.

One of the recent trends seen in the market is the entry of vitamin and dietary supplement manufacturers into the food and snack industry. For example, Chinese dietary supplement supplier BY-HEALTH invests in product diversity and separates its products into foods and snacks with “light” features and supplements with “strong” features. Protein bars have become the snack choice for these dietary supplement providers. The company, as of the end of 2020, has received filing approvals for 112 health foods and registration approvals for over 140 health foods.

Raw materials represent the largest component of manufacturing costs for vitamins and dietary supplements. It accounted for more than 50% of the share of the overall manufacturing cost. The raw materials include the combination of vitamin A and vitamin K. Among these, vitamin A and beta-carotene hold the major cost of 9% and 7% respectively.

  • Comparative rate analysisThe dosage form is one of the most important aspects when analyzing the comparative analysis of multivitamin and supplement ratios. In our research, we have analyzed vitamin A levels in three major types of the dosage form; solids (tablets and capsules), liquids and powders. Using comparative rate analysis, we found that solid forms of multivitamins are approximately 50% more cost effective than liquids and powders. The solid forms also have a longer shelf life than the other two dosage forms. Therefore, most multivitamin and supplement manufacturers have allocated over 60% of overall production capacity to the production of multivitamin tablets and capsules. Only 20% of the production line is used for the production of liquid and powder supplements.
