The global market of Sorbitol has registered increase in price across major import and export locations in November 2025. The increase in the market value of Sorbitol was driven by the need to rebuild inventories after a cautious procurement pattern in October. The buyers had deliberately relied on existing stock in October as they were expecting the demand to stabilize. However, the downstream production cycles were consistently active which absorbed the residual volumes. The downstream market players have entered November with notable inventory tightness which prompted a more urgent procurement pace. The lean inventories with the renewed procurement interest and steady consumption across the pharmaceuticals, food and beverage and personal care sectors have created a strong upward pull-on prices. The winter-season preparedness among market participants have added to buying decisions as players typically avoid supply-related risks during colder months when disruptions tend to be more frequent. The market of Sorbitol strengthened in a synchronized manner across China, the United States and France as demand across multiple corridors aligned simultaneously.
