However, Asia Pacific is projected to witness the fastest growth over the estimated period. China is a leading producer of vitamin C and also accounts for a major portion of sorbitol consumption as input for its production. Rapid expansion of personal care and F&B industries in Central & South America and Middle East and Africa are driving the regional markets.
