18. Baby Food Market Outlook - 2020
Baby food market was valued at $50.7 billion in 2014 and is expected to
garner $72.7 billion by 2020, registering a CAGR of 6.4% during the
forecast period 2015-2020. Traditionally, babies are fed with soft home
cooked food, a practice that is still popular in underdeveloped and
developing countries. However, growing urbanization and changing
lifestyles have increased the demand for packaged baby foods in different
societies and cultures. These foods are fed to babies between the ages of
four to six months and two years. Growing awareness for nutrition, rise in
organized retail marketing, urbanization paired with a significant increase
in the count of working women population are key factors that boost the
baby food industry growth. Concerns related to food safety, falling birth
rates, and the practice of feeding home cooked food to babies are the key
restraints in this market.
19. Market Segmentation
The marketing concept asks for understanding customers’ requirements
and satisfying their requirements and needs better than the others do. But
many customers have different requirements and it hardly chance to
satisfy all customers by treating them same just like. Market segmentation
is the searching of part of the market that are not similar from other.
Segmentation provides the firm to good satisfy the needs of its major
customers.
