The infant nutrition market in Indonesia is driven by factors such as increasing awareness of the importance of proper infant nutrition, rising disposable income, and the growing number of working women. The demand for infant formula is on the rise due to the increasing preference for convenience and the perception that formula is more nutritious than traditional foods. Additionally, the government's efforts to improve maternal and child health through various programs have also contributed to the growth of the infant nutrition market. However, challenges such as high product prices, concerns about the safety and quality of infant formula, and the promotion of breast milk substitutes hinder the growth of the market. Key players in the market include Danone, Abbott Laboratories, Nestlé, Morinaga Milk Industry Co., Ltd., Mead Johnson & Company, LLC, and FrieslandCampina.
Indonesia Infant Nutrition Market is projected to surpass US$ 9.90 Bn by the end of 2028 and exhibit a CAGR of 7.16% during the forecast period (2021 to 2028).
