• According to the study, The Baby Food Sector In
  Argentina, 2018, there are a number of
  interesting findings that have been made
  regarding the countrys baby food market.It is
  well known that baby food plays an important role
  in the nourishment of a child. Today, with
  increasing awareness nutrition has become one of
  the main topics of concern. Child nutrition is
  gaining importance around the world including in
  Argentina. According to the latest estimates the
  birth rate of Argentina has been decreasing which
  should suggest unfavorable conditions for the
  baby food sector of the country however studies
  show that baby food in Argentina has seen growth
  both in terms of value and volume. Research
  studies have found that when choosing for baby
  products especially baby food Argentine consumers
  are highly aware. These consumers have
  traditionally had a negative attitude towards
  processed baby food and commercially prepared
  baby foods which are seen as less healthy
  compared to freshly prepared meals. However, it
  is not only the consumers perception that is
  hindering growth of this industry. Some economic
  factors are also contributing, for instance,
  widespread inflation in recent years has dampened
  volume growth in the country leading to
  contractions in 2015 and 2016, although 2017 saw
  a return to a low level of expansion. In 2017,
  the market was worth quarter of a billion US
  Dollars approximately but per capita consumption
  per baby aged 0-3 years remains low at just over
  five kilograms, although it has grown by
  one-tenth proportion since 2011.

• Exports of milks and cereals have fallen but
  remain significant. Exports of all other baby
  food are minimal. Apart from exports, marketing
  too has seen a shift in trend with large
  supermarkets and hypermarkets gaining ground
  despite nearly half of the milk still being sold
  via pharmacies. Recently food retailers took the
  largest share of the market with more than half
  of the volume sales. Also, manufacturers are not
  allowed to donate free samples of baby milk to
  mothers or hospitalsand there are restrictions on
  the advertising of infant formulae. Although
  there have not been much changes in rates of
  breastfeeding, the proportion of sales accounted
  for by first and second-stage milks has fallen as
  a result of the increasing popularity of growing
  up milks. Growth has also been noted in cereals
  which now account for more than one-tenth of
  retail sales of all baby food which is double the
  proportion they held in 2011. However, volume
  sales have risen less quickly than either baby
  milks or baby meals.

• The baby food market is currently dominated by
  two companies namely Danone and Mead Johnson
  which together hold nearly three-fourth share in
  volume and value sales. Danone was recently the
  leader in value sales although it ranked second
  in volume terms. Nestlé Argentina SA is also
  among the key players.
• Argentina seems to be going through a lot as far
  as its baby food sector is concerned. Economic
  conditions and consumer behavior have greatly
  hindered the growth of this sector. Marketing of
  baby food is witnessing great change as well and
  reliable international brands continue to
  dominate the market.
