PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Dried baby food continues to outperform milk formula
There will continue to be positive constant value growth over the forecast period, with continuing population growth also supporting sales. As in 2025, dried baby food will register higher volume growth than milk formula, with affordability being the main driver of sales.
Key focus on nutrition
Local brands will gain value share, and will focus on providing nutritious baby food porridges made from familiar wholesome ingredients like banana, sweet potatoes, cassava, and purées from local legumes and fruits. In addition, with malnutrition such as anaemia and deficiencies in vitamin A continuing to be a serious challenge for many babies, there will also be increasing offerings of targeted fortified baby food and milk formula.
Soy-based milk formula could gain traction as cost-effective alternative to cow-based milk formula
The use of soy could emerge as a solution for the continuous escalating cost of cow’s milk, a key ingredient for milk formula. While currently all milk formula is imported, local brands are already offering soy-based baby cereal and this could potentially expand to milk formula.
