forecast and dollar values of the global baby food market. According to the

Baby food is foodstuffs processed
and manufactured for the nutritional health of infants in their earlier years
between four months to two years of age. These foods are soft, easy to consume
food products other than breastmilk. Baby food products contain nutritious
organic whole foods and serve as a way to healthily feed a child while in
transit, outside home or when engaged in any of the other innumerable. They
come in several varieties and flavors are easily available in retail stores, convenient
stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets, and online stores.
The global baby food market is
driven by factors such as a rising population of women in the workforce, busy
lifestyle, increasing disposable income, perception of baby food as a status
quotient in high-income groups. In addition, greater awareness about packaged
baby food among parents to adequately fulfill the nutritional requirements of
the infants are encouraging the growth of the baby food market. Furthermore,
government and non-government initiatives such as Women, Infant, Children The
program, USDA Nutrition Assistance Programs, and several other programs, which
provide baby food to low-income families, promote the growth of the baby food
market. On the other hand, regulation pertaining to food safety has caused
multiple recalls of baby foods because of concerns about contamination or
spoilage hamper the growth of the baby food market. Another factor that is
likely to restrain the baby food market is the falling birth rate in developed
markets and government initiatives promoting breastfeeding and homemade baby
food. High potential coupled with untapped markets and rising number of women
in the workforce worldwide, the emergence of organic baby foodstuffs,
availability of these foodstuffs on e-commerce websites will provide growth
opportunities for the leading and emerging player. Another, major challenge for
the baby food industry is to comply with highly strict and healthy regulations
pertaining to baby food nutritional standards.
The Asia-Pacific is the key
consumer for baby food products in the global market and accounted for the
highest global market shares in 2017. The growing urbanization and changing
lifestyle is boosting the growth of the Asia-Pacific baby food market. Women account
for half of the combined population of Asia-Pacific that highly contributes to
the growth of the Asia-Pacific market. Europe is another promising market with
over XX% global market share followed by North America at XX%. Growth in this
region is highly attributed to the rising participation of women in the
workforce and drastically changing lifestyle. Furthermore, the APAC region is

markets such as India, China, and Indonesia. India currently has about 125-150 million children within the age of four, making it the largest market in Asia
for baby food producers and allied industries.
