Zion Research has published a new report titled “Baby Food Market (Bottled
baby food, Baby food cereals, Baby food snacks, Baby Food Soup, Frozen baby
food): Global Industry Perspective, Comprehensive Analysis and Forecast, 2015 -
2021.” According to the report, the global Baby Food market accounted for USD
53.31 Billion in 2015 and is expected to reach USD 76.48 Billion by 2021,
growing at a CAGR of around 6.2% between 2016 and 2021.
Baby food is either a total or partial substitute for breast
milk for infants or toddlers of under two years. It is a soft food, which can
be easily consumed by infants and babies. To meet the nutritional requirements
of the baby, baby foods are especially designed by the manufacturers.
Generally, baby food is prepared with required amount of proteins and iron, so
that it properly helps in the baby’s growth and initial body development. The
baby food market is classified into various segments which include product,
health benefits and basic ingredients.
There are mainly three forms of baby food, which are liquid
concentrate, powder, and ready-to-feed. Powder is the least expensive form and
it is used by mixing with water before feeding the infant. In case of
ready-to-feed form of baby food, there is no need of addition of any liquid and
mother can feed this directly to the baby. Furthermore, sub categories of baby
foods include dried baby food, milk formula, prepared baby food and other baby
food such as baby snacks and beverages. Cow milk-based formulas are gaining
large adoption in emerging economies in the past few years. Increasing
population base, rising disposable income level of individual and growing
urbanization, are some of the major reasons, which are expected to be driving
the baby food market in all across the globe. Decline in birth rate in
developed countries can act as a major challenge for the growth in baby food
market within the forecast period.
Growth in the baby food or formula market is also driven by
an increase in numbers of women working outside the home. As many working
mothers return to their jobs shortly after giving birth, prepared baby foods
and formulas provide tempting substitute for working mothers, bridging their
desires for nutritious, healthy food with their need for convenience.
Hypermarkets, supermarkets, small grocery retails, and health & beauty
retailers are the key distribution channels serving in the baby food industry.
Among all supermarkets are the primarily preferred distribution channel
followed by health and beauty retailers. However, in developing countries like
India, small grocery retailers and health and beauty retailers are among the
mostly preferred sales channels. At present, small grocery retailers hold a
relatively smaller share in the global market. Other sales channels in this
market include discounters, non-store retailing and non-grocery retailers.
Asia Pacific market is prominent and one of the fastest
growing markets for baby food among various regions due to population growth in
China and India. Hence, in Asia-Pacific region, China and India hold an
extensive share in the baby food market. Nestlé India Ltd maintained the lead
the market accounting for a major share in the market in 2015. The company has
continued to leverage the reputation of its leading brands including Cerelac,
Lactogen, Nestum, Nan and Nestogen. The company is focusing on enlarging its
penetration to smaller cities of India.
North America was the largest markets for baby food in 2015.
In North America region, the U.S. accounted account the largest share in baby
food market. However, the market for baby foods in North America is expected to
witness stagnant growth due to the low birth rate and less demand for baby
food. Debate over legislations regarding food labeling and its advertisements
are poised to exhibit challenges for baby food products sales. Parents are
opting for natural ingredients and no additives containing food with major
attraction on organic baby food products.
