This week, China's vitamin market experienced overall narrow-range consolidation, with demand-side activity remaining cautious—dominated by small-scale follow-up orders from rigid demand. The Vitamin A market was characterized by a strong wait-and-see sentiment; some manufacturers halted reporting and signing new orders, while market prices remained firm. Most Vitamin E manufacturers were either suspended for maintenance or operating at reduced capacity, demonstrating a strong willingness to support prices; overall, there was strong bullish sentiment within the industry, and downstream inquiries showed a slight rebound, leading to a moderately strong price trend for VE. Vitamin K3 manufacturers primarily focused on fulfilling existing orders, and trade market prices underwent narrow-range consolidation. The domestic folic acid market trended weakly downward, with significant variation in quoted price ranges, cautious market trading activity, and localized prices remaining low. The inositol market saw sluggish buying and selling activity, with prices trending weaker. According to customs import and export data, in July 2026, vitamin export volumes decreased by 2.42% year-on-year and by 18.60% month-on-month; however, the total vitamin export volume from January to July increased by 12.51% year-on-year.
