The CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is forecast at 5.5% from 2026 to 2033. It may not sound like a huge number, but in the world of ingredients and raw materials, that’s solid. This means reliable demand and recurring orders for those who build the right partnerships early.

This is driven by steady demand across Asia-Pacific—including Vietnam—as well as increasing regulations that favor well-documented, certified colors.

Regional Demand – Where’s the Growth Happening?

  • North America & Europe – Mature markets where Vietnam exports products—so local manufacturers must use ingredients approved in these regions.
