North America has established itself as the dominant region in the global melatonin market with 37.8% of the market share in 2024. This is primarily due to strong consumer awareness about the benefits of melatonin as a sleep aid and natural supplement in countries like the U.S. The prevalence of insomnia and other sleep disorders is high among North American adults and melatonin is widely accepted as a safe and effective treatment option.  Major pharmaceutical companies have established production facilities and conduct research & development activities focused on melatonin formulations and delivery mechanisms. Retail distribution networks are highly organized, making melatonin supplements easily accessible to the mass consumer segment. The nutritional supplement industry in North America also promotes melatonin aggressively through online and in-store marketing campaigns.

Asia Pacific has emerged as the fastest growing regional market for melatonin in recent years. Rising health consciousness and preference for natural products are driving the market growth. The considerable time zone differences faced by traveling business professionals and students have further increased demand for sleep aids like melatonin in Asia Pacific nations. China, in particular, represents immense market potential. Several local manufacturers have entered the melatonin market and offer products at competitive price points compared to imports. E-commerce is a major sales channel that is helping Chinese consumers overcome the challenge of limited retail shelf space for nutritional supplements. Japan is another important Asian country, where melatonin is deemed effective for improving sleep quality among the sizeable aging population. The presence of major pharmaceutical distributors has made Japanese market opportunities attractive for global melatonin producers.
