1.1 Infant formula- Baby food and infant formula markets have experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by the increasing working mother population and rising health awareness among consumers. Baby food manufacturers, such as Danone and Reckitt, have capitalized on this trend by expanding their product offerings to include organic baby food and e-commerce options. However, the production of baby food and infant formula comes with challenges, including low wages and stress for laborers, milk production, and stringent regulations for food safety. Convenience-oriented lifestyles and rapid urbanization have led to an increase in demand for instant baby cereal, dried baby food, and freeze-dried finger foods. Middle-class families, in particular, have disposable income to spend on premium baby food products. Traditional packaged food companies, like Timios and Catalyst Organization, are also entering the market, offering hygienic and nutritionally valuable options with additional nutrients and flavor variety. Pregnant women and new mothers, especially during lockdown measures, have relied on these products to ensure their infants' health and development. Infant formula, which contains both casein and whey proteins, has become a popular alternative to breast milk for working mothers. Despite advancements in formula production, it is essential to note that these products differ from breast milk in their amino acid and protein composition. Start-ups, like Sugarlogix, are also entering the market, offering innovative solutions, such as plant-based baby food and infant formula. With the changing lifestyles and increasing demand for baby food and infant formula, it is crucial that manufacturers adhere to stringent regulations and maintain the highest standards of hygiene and nutritional value.
