In 2023, Japan imported 540.00 thousand kilograms of Vitamin B3 and B5, D- or Dl-Panthothenic Acid. The forecast for 2024 is 555.32 thousand kilograms, marking a projected year-on-year increase of approximately 2.83%. The trend continues steadily with annual increases: 2.32% in 2025, 2.22% in 2026, 2.13% in 2027, and 2.04% in 2028.
