Over the last several years, there has been an increase in worry regarding newborns and young children consuming food products that include artificial substances. Parental concern for the nutrition of their infants and young children has surpassed that of their own adult consumption as a result of increased parental awareness of various food constituents. Given the widespread use of the internet, parents are more willing to spend more on baby food than adult food since they are aware of new products that are suitable for their children. Furthermore, there are more organic goods available in smaller towns, which is a crucial component in the market's expansion. Particularly during the 1990s, organic baby food items have become more and more popular. Given their popularity in the baby food area, big food producers are therefore interested in these items. In March 1996, one of the biggest manufacturers of baby food, H.J. Heinz, bought Earth's Best. After that, in October 1997, Gerber introduced their line of organic baby foods under the name "Tender Harvest." Since then, the industry has seen the entry of numerous major players, and a variety of products are now offered. The market for organic baby food has grown in smaller towns as a result of the greater penetration of these goods in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR for organic baby food.
Furthermore, in recent years, consumers have been more likely to purchase milk formulae due to the rise in the number of working women. Infant formulae made with artificial components, on the other hand, have been found to be devoid of the immune-stimulating substances found in breast milk. The popularity of these milk formulae is growing because they are made with natural ingredients that may still offer essential nutrients. These milk formulae assist in nourishing infants who have certain nutritional requirements. Specialized milk formula products are available for babies with certain dietary demands. Milk formulas are increasingly being chosen as the preferred product by customers, particularly in industrialized nations, due to the multiple advantages of organic ingredients. Thus, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate organic baby food market revenue globally.
The organic baby food market segmentation, based on product type, includes prepared baby food, milk formula, dried baby food and others. The milk formula segment held the majority share in 2022 in the market for organic baby food data due to a rise in the number of working women globally. Milk formulas are becoming more and more common as a result of the growing number of working women and the need to offer children with more nutrient-dense diet.

The grains & cereals segment dominated the market growth for organic baby food in 2022 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030.

Since a few years ago, supermarket chains have begun to expand from wealthy areas of large cities to much smaller towns. Currently, supermarkets are only available to wealthy consumers. The primary drivers behind the grocery industry's explosive growth include rising earnings, growing urbanization, a rise in the proportion of women in the labour force, and the adoption of western culture.
