Liquid Glucose Prices Outlook Q2 2025
- USA: USD 678/Ton
- China: USD 568/Ton
- Germany: USD 662/Ton
- Indonesia: USD 535/Ton
- India: USD 535/Ton
During the second quarter of 2025, the liquid glucose prices in the USA reached 678 USD/Ton in June. The production cost of liquid glucose in the US was subject to mild pressure during this period, primarily due to fluctuations in corn prices. Although the overall production costs did not experience extreme volatility, the softening of corn prices played a key role in lowering production margins. Corn, being a primary raw material for liquid glucose production, directly influenced the cost structure of production. Lower corn prices helped keep production costs stable or even reduced them, allowing producers to avoid major increases in liquid glucose prices. This soft cost environment helped prevent any upward pricing pressures across the market.
During the second quarter of 2025, the liquid glucose prices in China reached 568 USD/Ton in June. Chinese buyers, observing the subdued demand in neighboring markets, became cautious with their procurement strategies. The trend contributed to a sense of market caution in China, leading to conservative purchasing behaviors among downstream buyers. The need for immediate procurement was limited, as buyers had sufficient stock from previous inventories. The lack of significant seasonal triggers, especially after April, meant that industries in China were not inclined to make bulk purchases during May and June. This further contributed to the steady or flat pricing trends.
During the second quarter of 2025, liquid glucose prices in Germany reached 662 USD/Ton in June. Several factors influenced the price dynamics of liquid glucose in Germany, which were reflective of broader European market trends. The seasonal demand from the bakery and dairy sectors provided an initial uplift in April, but this was followed by a gradual softening in May and June. This shift was primarily driven by the normalization of weather patterns, which reduced the initial demand surge. In addition, growing macroeconomic uncertainty had a cooling effect on industrial demand, further contributing to the softening trend in liquid glucose prices during the latter part of the quarter.
During the second quarter of 2025, the liquid glucose prices in Indonesia reached 535 USD/Ton in June. As per the liquid glucose price chart, the market experienced a subtle bearish price trend, largely attributed to several factors within the local and global market environment. A key driver was the relatively muted demand from critical sectors such as food, beverage, and nutraceuticals. These industries, which are typically large consumers of liquid glucose, were operating on a need-only basis, purchasing only what was necessary for their immediate production needs. This cautious approach, particularly from food and beverage companies, limited the overall demand for liquid glucose, contributing to a softer pricing environment.
During the second quarter of 2025, the liquid glucose prices in India reached 535 USD/Ton in June. Prices rose in April on the back of warmer weather and stronger demand from beverage and dessert manufacturers. Seasonal consumption, along with favorable currency exchange rates encouraging bulk purchases, tightened immediate supply. This short-lived rally was the only notable upswing in the quarter. Besides, from May, the market turned softer. International maize prices fell, lowering production costs for Indian manufacturers. Without a feedstock cost push, mills had less reason to maintain higher price offers.

Europe Liquid Glucose Price Trend
Q4 2025:
As per the liquid glucose price index, prices across Europe weakened, influenced by moderated demand from confectionery, bakery, and processed food manufacturing. Additionally, reduced procurement from downstream food processors tempered buying intensity across key consuming hubs. Moreover, sourcing strategies emphasized inventory discipline, logistics coordination, and alignment with confirmed production schedules, with buyers relying more on existing stocks amid subdued downstream utilization. Regulatory compliance and quality requirements continued to shape procurement decisions, particularly for food-grade applications.
Q3 2025:
Prices across Europe declined, driven by reduced demand from confectionery, bakery, and processed food manufacturing. Additionally, lower procurement activity from downstream food processors weighed on buying interest, as manufacturers adjusted production rates. Moreover, sufficient availability across regional supply chains allowed buyers to operate with restrained sourcing strategies, focusing on inventory turnover and aligning purchases closely with confirmed processing schedules rather than expanding stock position.
Q2 2025:
In Q2 2025, the pricing of liquid glucose in Europe experienced a range of fluctuations, largely driven by seasonal trends, supply dynamics, and macroeconomic conditions. Initially, the demand from the bakery and dairy sectors saw a significant seasonal uptick in April. This demand surge, however, was short-lived. As the weather stabilized and macroeconomic uncertainty crept back into the picture, demand from these sectors softened through May and June. This cooling of demand, paired with the return of more typical weather patterns, dampened the momentum that had built up earlier in the quarter. On the production side, the situation was more favorable for European starch processors. The lower cost of maize and wheat, in line with global agricultural trends, allowed for reduced production costs of liquid glucose. This price reduction at the source made it easier for producers to maintain competitive pricing, particularly within the domestic market.
Q1 2025:
As per the liquid glucose price index, prices in Europe showed erratic trends. January saw consistent gains as businesses stored up to protect against supply disruptions and favorable economic signs rekindled demand for food and beverages. Stress returned in March as major ports had labor shortages and delays, which reduced supplies and forced new purchases. By the end of March, demand for food and drink improved, which helped to sustain a modest price increase throughout the spring.

North America Liquid Glucose Price Trend
Q4 2025:
As per the liquid glucose price index, prices in North America strengthened, supported by demand from confectionery manufacturers, beverage producers, and processed food applications. Furthermore, steady downstream utilization encouraged consistent procurement activity across food processing clusters. In addition, sourcing strategies emphasized supply continuity, contract adherence, and inventory planning aligned with production visibility and seasonal consumption patterns across retail and institutional channels.
Q3 2025:
Prices in North America declined, reflecting softer demand from confectionery producers, beverage manufacturers, and processed food applications. Furthermore, reduced procurement from food processors coincided with adequate domestic supply availability, limiting buying urgency. In addition, sourcing strategies emphasized short-cycle purchasing, inventory optimization, and alignment with moderated downstream utilization across food and beverage manufacturing clusters.
Q2 2025:
As per the liquid glucose price index, the market in North America exhibited a state of balance, characterized by stable supply and demand dynamics. Demand from the food and beverage sector was steady but lacked significant growth, which contributed to a moderate level of transaction activity. The market’s equilibrium was maintained throughout the quarter, ensuring that there were no major disruptions in either supply or demand. One of the key drivers of the market during this period was the trend in liquid glucose production costs. In the US, production costs were under mild pressure primarily due to fluctuations in corn prices. While these fluctuations did not cause significant volatility, the softness in corn prices played a role in stabilizing production margins at lower levels. Since corn is a primary raw material for liquid glucose production, its cost directly influences the price of the final product. The reduction in corn prices helped keep the production costs lower than expected, but without triggering a significant drop in prices across the board.
Q1 2025:
Due to erratic supply networks, fluctuating demand, and evolving trade policies, liquid glucose rates fluctuated wildly throughout the United States. Rising energy prices and crowded ports like Los Angeles further pushed costs upward in early January as customers stored up ahead of potential tariff changes and shipping delays. Demand also declined as a result of remaining stocks and cautious consumer sentiment, which pushed prices down. As purchasers prepared for further trade actions and a slight recovery in inflation, which pushed rates back up, procurement increased by March.

In addition, sourcing strategies emphasized inventory visibility, cost management, and alignment with localized consumption patterns across diverse markets with varying supply structures.
Q3 2025:
In Asia Pacific, liquid glucose prices reflected mixed conditions as demand trends diverged across regional markets. On one hand, stronger buying interest supported prices in parts of the region where food and beverage production remained active, while on the other, reduced consumption in several markets led to restrained procurement. Furthermore, sourcing strategies varied, with buyers balancing inventory coverage, cost management, and alignment with localized production schedules rather than following a uniform regional pattern.
Q2 2025:
In Q2 2025, the market in the Asia Pacific region, particularly in Indonesia, experienced a relatively subdued performance. The spot price showed a slight bearish trend, largely driven by weak demand from key sectors such as food, beverage, and nutraceutical industries. These sectors operated on a need-only basis, limiting their offtake. This cautious procurement behavior was largely influenced by the absence of seasonal demand triggers, such as festivals or major consumption periods. As a result, the market lacked the usual upward pressure that typically accompanies periods of high demand, leading to a moderation in prices. The demand outlook for liquid glucose remained conservative during this period, with downstream buyers heavily relying on inventories built up earlier in the year. This conservative approach also meant that market activity was relatively muted, with fewer transactions taking place, reinforcing the price softness.
Q1 2025:
The market for liquid glucose in Indonesia fluctuated due to strong demand from the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors, as well as decreased inflation and a supportive monetary policy stance.
