The market for baby food in Taiwan is relatively small and has been severely affected in recent years by low numbers of live births. Although the convenience of baby food is attractive, breastfeeding remains important, whilst safety has also been an issue. Volume sales of baby food declined by 1.9% and value sales increased by 17.4% in 2006. Milks accounted for the majority of sales of baby food with 70% of value. Cereals is the second largest sector, accounted for 25.5%, meals & finger foods accounted for 3.6% and drinks was the smallest sector of the market with 1.1% of retail sales value in 2016. The number of births is expected to decline and the long-term trend towards increased breastfeeding will also severely hamper growth in future. Up to 2022, retail sales are expected to increase by roughly 1%, while volume sales may decline by 8%.
