Import prices of US CoQ10 increased in October 2025. As a result of a combination of increased demand, supply chain reasons, and increased cost of production. Popular antioxidant CoQ10, because of its health benefit, particularly in cardiovascular well-being and enhanced energy, has skyrocketed in the consumer market, fueling demand. The geopolitics have, however, contributed to raw material shortages, which have increased procurement costs. Producers are confronted with costly energy, labor shortages, and government regulations, leading to price hikes. Demand for supplements will peak when the holiday season is near and will also affect supply chains. Therefore, the downstream retailers and vendors nationwide are requested to make adjustments in inventory plans, and consumers should purchase CoQ10 ahead of time to prevent price increase later in November. Stakeholders are required to foster good supplier relationships and react to evolving pricing plans for their survival during this period.
