With the economic growth, scientific and technological progress, and improvement of health awareness and medical level in India, there is a growing demand for Vitamin B6. India is a country with a global population second only to China, which has great downstream demand. The penetration rate of Vitamin B6 in India is relatively low. It is expected that with the economic development and the popularity of Vitamin B6 in the Indian market in the future, the entire market will maintain rapid growth for a long time. What is more, the manufacturing sector has evolved from its earlier stages of industrialization to its current phase of global competitiveness in India, making it a great location for newer, smaller businesses to manufacture, which brings a great market potential for Vitamin B6 in this area. Besides, factory wages of India are the lowest among Mexico, Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, and China. The cost to manufacture in India is often lower compared to other Asian manufacturing industries due to largely lower worker wages, which reduces manufacturing costs for manufacturers. This attracts more and more large enterprises entering the India market and Brings opportunity to the development of the Vitamin B6 industry. At the same time, the rapid development of the Animal Nutrition, Food & Beverage Industry and pharmaceutical industry in the India region also means that Vitamin B6 has a large market potential in the India region.

Global Vitamin B6 Industry Development Forecast

As one of the essential trace elements of human body, vitamin B6 has many functions and benefits, which is very helpful for maintaining physical health. The benefits of vitamin B6 itself have promoted consumption and demand, and have a beneficial impact on the development of the industry. Conversely, too much vitamin B6 taken from supplements can lead to nerve damage in the arms and legs. Prolonged intake of daily doses of 500 mg and more may cause damage to the sensory nerves. Tolerable upper intake level to avoid adverse effects, health authorities in Europe and the U.S. have set tolerable upper intake levels for vitamin B6. Excessive intake of vitamin b6 may cause side effects, which hinders consumption to some extent and restricts industry development.

The Vitamin B6 industry has higher barriers to entry. The first is technical barriers. Vitamin B6 production involves complex processes. The process was originally monopolized by the Vitamin B6 giant companies. It is difficult for companies that do not master the technology to fully replicate the production lines and process parameters of existing Vitamin B6 manufacturers, and it is difficult to obtain key intermediates for preparing Vitamin B6s. The second is the capital barrier. The Vitamin B6 industry is a typical capital-intensive industry. Enterprises without strong capital strength cannot enter the Vitamin B6 industry, and even if they enter, they cannot form an effective scale effect. The third is exit cost barriers. Vitamin B6 synthesis routes is long and the equipment is mostly dedicated, the exit cost is high, The fourth is brand barriers, in order to ensure product quality, enterprises in various manufacturing industries generally choose excellent brand products in the Vitamin B6 industry, and establish long-term relationships with superior manufacturers in the Vitamin B6 industry, Stable cooperative relationship. Therefore, it is often difficult for non-industry companies to enter the Vitamin B6 industry, and various varieties basically present an oligopoly pattern, and the industry concentration is relatively high. All these factors will hinder the development of this industry.
