India Baby Food, 2019 is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Indian market.

The number of births in India has risen gradually since 2016. There were 80.3 million babies aged 0-3 years in 2019. Living standards are significantly higher in urban areas and this is where most industrially produced baby foods are sold. However, there is a rising middle class, even in smaller towns and rural areas, that manufacturers are targeting to widen the consumer base.

Although there is vast potential, sales growth has been subdued. Per capita intake levels rose by 10.3% over the 2013-2019 period but remains extremely low by international standards. The vast majority of baby food is locally produced, with high tariff rates and low purchasing power putting imported products beyond the reach of most consumers. Several multinationals now produce international brands locally.

The market for baby food has enormous potential for further development, despite an expected decline i...

"The Baby Food Sector in Singapore, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Singapore market.

The development of the baby food sector in Singapore goes beyond the realms of disposable income and is more often dependent on attitudes to industrially prepared foods in general, the desire for convenient alternatives, and the employment status of women. Baby food manufacturers have come to benefit, particularly in the meals category as despite a preference by mothers to feed home-cooked meals to their babies, they increasingly find little time to prepare them. However, demand for sweet meals has been held back as many mothers prefer to mash fresh fruit instead, as a healthier option. Another factor that has affected the consumption of baby foods is the significant number of expatriates in Singapore, who demand more sophisticated or 'western' products for their babies.

Saudi Arabia has a rapidly developing retail sector and the market for baby food has grown steadily. The demand for baby food in Saudi Arabia has further potential for growth given the increased exposure to Western lifestyles, the underlying strength of the economy.

"The Baby Food Sector in Ireland, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Irish market.

The majority of mothers in Ireland use formula milks from birth or introduce formula milk by the second or third month, meaning that demand for first-stage and follow-on milks is very strong.

Parents demand a greater diversity of baby foods to fit in with the ever-expanding choice available in adult foods. Manufacturers are providing more and more choices of milks and foods which claim to be organic.

"The Baby Food Sector in Egypt, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Egyptian market.

Despite having the largest population in the Middle East, Egypt has a small market for baby food, as the cost of commercial products puts them out of reach of the majority of consumers. Poorer consumers, and those who distrust commercially prepared baby foods, continue to feed their babies in the traditional way, gradually weaning them off breast milk with herb-based drinks, such as chamomile or peppermint, or other liquids, and then on to more solid foods.

"The Baby Food Sector in Denmark, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Danish market.

Per capita consumption of commercial baby food in Denmark is low, particularly in the case of baby meals, reflecting a continuing allegiance to traditional methods of feeding. Consumer perception that ready-prepared meals are unhealthy has traditionally held back demand, although manufacturers have responded to this issue by reducing levels of added sugar and salt in their recipes, or removing them entirely. Baby Food market value is expected to rise by 41.8% in current terms over the forecast period. In real terms, market value in 2023 is likely to be 26.6% higher than in 2017.

"The Baby Food Sector in Peru, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Peruvian market.

Poverty levels remain high in Peru, despite recent economic progress, and this has had a direct impact on consumption trends in the baby food sector. In particular, demand is low in rural areas, where incomes are lower. Most baby food is bought by consumers living in urban areas, primarily in the capital Lima, or along the coast, and the majority of these consumers belong to the wealthier classes. The market remains small, with only a minority of parents able to afford commercial baby food, although it has expanded significantly over the last few years. In comparison with historical trends and with other South American countries, inflation in Peru has remained relatively low. In 2018, it is expected to fall to below 2%. Real GDP growth has slowed since the booming 2011-2013 period, but remains positive. Peru has a business-friendly environment, and is concentrating on...

"The Baby Food Sector in Israel, 2018", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Israeli market.

Baby food is sold through a large network of retail outlets, like pharmacies, supermarkets, discount stores, and other food outlets. The majority of sales are now conducted through supermarkets and discounters , which hold a share of 61% in 2017. Pharmacies (including a growing drugstore sector) are also important and accounted for 37% of sales by 2017, although their share has been undermined in recent years by the advance of supermarkets and the launch of Shufersal’s own-label milk, as well as by discount stores.

Summary

"The Baby Food Market in the US 2017", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the US market.

Many parents have put off raising children, and the number of births has fallen unremittingly to million in 2016. Growing demand for organic and non-GMO indicates that parents with sufficient income are prepared to spend it on food perceived as more beneficial for their babies. Consumption has fallen partly as a result of a lower number of births, and, in the case of baby milks, partly due to higher levels of breastfeeding. The infant formula market is distorted by the Federal WIC program. Growth in newer segments - particularly pouches, snacks and toddler milks - has prevented even more serious declines. Forecasts for the US economy are currently relatively positive. Coupled with the forecast increase in births from 2018 onwards, this is likely to lead to a more buoyant market.

"The Baby Food Market in France 2017", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the French market.

The number of births has been relentlessly downwards. The vast majority of families are able to afford commercially prepared baby food, but the financial crisis of 2008 has put incomes under pressure, fueling a trend towards home-made food. Although it remains the largest market in Western Europe and is highly sophisticated and segmented, the depressed economic situation has seen consumption of baby food drop by 14% between 2010 and 2016, and prices have fallen in real terms. The market is expected to continue performing better from 2017, but consumption is expected to increase by only 2.9% by 2022, as the number of births is likely to continue to fall. Retail sales may show some growth. Small increases in volumes of all sectors except baby drinks are expected.

"The Baby Food Market in Sweden 2017", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Swedish market.

Sweden baby food market has continued to be more buoyant than most European markets - a result of the upward trend in the number of births, as well as a relatively favorable economic climate, demand for premium products, and high levels of female employment. Unusually, cereals and wet meals account for the vast majority of sales in Sweden. Milks account for only 14.5% of total value. The popularity of välling, a traditional, milk-based gruel, alongside high levels of breastfeeding, has held back the development of the infant formula sector. Rise in baby food consumption, is anticipated largely as a result of the increasing number of live births and strong growth in milks, and to a slightly lesser extent in meals. Per capita consumption will increase only marginally.

"The Baby Food Market in Belgium 2017", is an analytical report by GlobalData which provides extensive and highly detailed current and future market trends in the Belgian market.

Belgium baby food market has generally struggled, although it has improved in the last three years. By 2016, value sales were 10% up on 2010. Sales were hit by the poor economic situation, particularly in 2012-2013, by the falling number of births, and by the resurgent popularity of home cooking. Manufacturers have tried to stimulate sales by advertising, including online media, and by introducing new products, but the market remains conservative and underdeveloped by European standards. Nonetheless, the baby food market is expected to grow over the next six years, boosted by slightly higher birth numbers and by an economy that is expected to grow, albeit modestly.
