Which factors are influencing the Kids Nutrition Market expansion?

A balanced diet is essential for children's growth and development during the first few years. By the age of 5, around 60% of adult height is accomplished. Inadequate intake of nutrients may hinder the kid’s overall development. But, nowadays as many moms are working, kids are missing out on a balanced nutritious diet. To ensure that their kids gain all essential nutrients, working moms are more inclined to purchase nutrition-rich food products present in the market. Thus, the increasing number of working mothers is the key factor driving the kids nutrition market.

The US Census Bureau reported that 32% of all employed women were mothers in 2018. Two-thirds of the 23.5 million were mothers with children under 18 who worked full-time. According to US labor force participation, in 2021, 71.2% of moms with children under 18 were either working or actively seeking a job. Even higher, 75.3% were mothers who were unmarried, widowed, or divorced. Around 75.5% of mothers with children under the age of six were employed in 2021. This shows that the proportion of working mothers is increasing rapidly over the past years. Therefore, with the increasing number of working moms the demand for nutritious food products for kids is expected to rise as they want to ensure that their children get all the required nutrients.
