Market Dynamics
Rising Demand for Infant Formula Products
The demand for infant formula has surged, particularly in China, where sales grew by 86% in February 2020, while baby food demand saw a 98% increase following the COVID-19 impact. China accounts for 30% of global infant formula consumption, followed closely by other Asian countries, which together hold 28% of the market. Notably, China contributes approximately 65% of the industry’s overall growth.
In 2015, China imported 180 kilotonnes of infant formula, valued at $2.4 billion, with Europe supplying about 90% of these imports. Additionally, concerns over domestically produced low-quality formulas have driven consumers to prefer imported alternatives.
DHA and EPA play a crucial role in infant brain development and immune strength. DHA, in particular, is widely incorporated into infant formula products in line with legal standards and WHO recommendations. A Norwegian study suggests that omega-3 positively impacts a childs cognitive abilities and problem-solving skills. Moreover, research indicates that high DHA levels in baby formula or breast milk can promote the growth of preterm infants, including height development.
With both adult and infant populations rising in China, the demand for infant nutrition and baby food continues to grow. Parents with busy lifestyles are increasingly opting for infant formula fortified with omega-3 to ensure optimal nutrition for their children.
