United States Vitamin B5 DDP Price Trend Analysis (2025)

This chart tracks Vitamin B5 prices in the U.S. (DDP basis) from January to August 2025. Prices remained stable at $7.00/kg through March, then gradually eased to $6.75/kg by June and July. In August, prices fell steeply to $5.75/kg.

For purchasers, the sharp August decline may signal greater buying opportunities, though it also raises questions about potential oversupply or reduced demand. Nutritionists might consider how lower Vitamin B5 costs could influence inclusion rates or substitution decisions within premixes. Broader dynamics—such as production capacity shifts in Asia, easing raw material costs, or changes in global feed demand—may be contributing factors. Contracting strategies may need reassessment as volatility re-emerges.

Will purchasers look to lock in contracts at the new lower levels, or wait for further clarity on stability?
