The global baby food market was valued at $85.6 billion in 2021 and it is expected to reach $170.5 billion at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2022 and 2032. Rising organized retail marketing activities and urbanization rates are driving the infant food market.

By region, Asia-Pacific is expected to lead the baby food market globally with highest share.              

Baby meals are made to be quickly and easily absorbed by infants. The majority of the nutrients required for a baby's bone and tissue growth are included in the formulas used to make these. Since breast milk is insufficient for an infant's effective development, many customers are willing to add adequate nutrients to their child's diet as a supplement. Additionally, the infant food market is expanding as a result of innovations that increase the products' safety through process improvements and technology breakthroughs.

One of the main drivers propelling the global baby food market is the rise in women's employment across the board. More women are working because there are equal educational and employment options for them, as well as helpful government programs. The industry size is being positively impacted by appropriate maternal health facilities, health infrastructure, and childcare policies adopted across many workplaces and industries. Additionally, the proportion of female workers in the workforce is increasing, which reduces the time available for mothers to breastfeed and prepare food for their infants, increasing the need for high-quality baby food.
