The global Vitamin B12 Ingredient market was valued at USD 0.32 million in 2024 and is projected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.05% between 2025 and 2034. The Vitamin B12 ingredient market is expected to witness strong growth, driven by the rising consumer awareness regarding the importance of micronutrients in maintaining overall health and well-being. This growth is further supported by increasing demand for fortified food and beverage products, especially among vegan and vegetarian populations prone to B12 deficiency. The versatility of Vitamin B12 in dietary supplements, functional foods, and pharmaceuticals makes it a vital ingredient across health-focused product segments.
By Form Insights
Based on form, the cyanocobalamin segment leads the market due to its affordability and widespread availability. As the most commonly used form of Vitamin B12, it is favored by supplement manufacturers for its stability and extended shelf life, making it ideal for large-scale production and easy integration into various formulations.

By Source Insights
The animal-based segment remains the largest contributor to the Vitamin B12 market, as this nutrient occurs naturally in foods like meat, dairy, and eggs. These ingredients are frequently used to enrich everyday products such as milk, yogurt, and processed meats, addressing the dietary requirements of a wide consumer demographic. The consistent global demand for animal-based foods supports this segment's ongoing expansion and market leadership. With consumers in many regions regularly including these products in their diets, animal-sourced B12 continues to be the primary option for nutritional enhancement, maintaining its strong position in the industry. 

By Application Insights
The pharmaceutical sector is poised to be a major driver of growth in the Vitamin B12 ingredient market in the coming years. As an essential component in medical formulations, Vitamin B12 plays a crucial role in addressing deficiency-related conditions including pernicious anemia, neurological disorders, and chronic fatigue. Rising health consciousness worldwide combined with demographic shifts toward older populations continues to fuel demand for supplemental and therapeutic Vitamin B12 products.  The increasing prevalence of health complications associated with Vitamin B12 deficiency is further propelling its pharmaceutical applications. Manufacturers are actively developing more advanced and effective formulations to meet this growing clinical demand.
