Market Overview
The baby
food market of UAE is still in its growth stage. The market displayed a strong
competitive scenario where international players that hold majority of the
stake are constantly trying to increase their existing market share. The UAE
Baby Food market has majorly been an import dominated market. The market is
receptive to newness and innovations for instance, camel milk based baby food
products and halal baby food products have gained a lot of popularity in the
country. Despite the fact that government is encouraging breast feeding among
new mothers and economic impact due to oil price shock of mid 2014 that continued
till 2015, the baby food market has shown consistent growth.
UAE Baby Food Market Segmentation
By Food Category (Dried Baby Food, Prepared Baby Food, Other
Baby Food, Milk Formula): Milk formula is the
most conventional baby food product in the market and is considered as the
prime substitute of mother’s milk, therefore it was the leading market segment
in the year 2017 with a considerable revenue share.
By Nature (Organic Food and Inorganic Food): This segmentation includes baby food categories such as dried
baby food, prepared baby food and other baby food but not milk formula. In the
UAE baby food market, the majority of the share was held by Inorganic Baby Food
due to the reasonable price positioning over organic food.
By Age (0-6 Months, 6-12 Months, 12+
Months): Stage 3
milk formulae for babies age 12 months and above is the leading category in
terms of sales due to the larger population size. Best selling stage 3 milk
formulae brands include Nido, Nan, Illume, Progress Gold, Pediasure and Isomer.
By Region (Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Sharjah,
Dubai, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, and Umm Al Quwain): Dubai accounted for the largest sale of baby food followed by
Abu Dhabi. About 75% of the revenue is contributed collectively by the emirates
of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. The, other regions such as Ajman, Fujairah, Ras Al
Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain have a very limited market share.
By Channel of Distribution (Hypermarkets, Supermarkets,
Independent Small Grocers, Health and Beauty Specialist Retailers, Other Foods
Non Grocery Specialists, Internet Retailing): The supply of baby food in UAE is taken care of majorly by
offline stores including Hypermarkets and Supermarkets. Subsequent purchases
after consulting health experts are made from these renowned and trustworthy
megastores. Presently, Internet retailing channels like e-commerce websites,
company websites, baby products’ specific websites and websites of offline
stores accounted for a very low share in the distribution.
By Milk Formula (Standard Milk Powered Formula, Follow on
Milk Powdered Formula, Growing-Up Milk Formula, and Special Baby Milk Formula):
The majority of the milk formula sales in UAE baby food
market contributed through growing-up milk formula products. It held a dominant
share in the market. This was followed by Follow on milk formula and standard
milk formula. The remaining segments that contributed to the market were
special baby milk formula which is primarily required by infants with special
nutritional needs or they are allergic to some specific ingredient.
Competitive Landscape
