What's Driving The Breast Milk Substitutes Market Growth?

At the heart of the breast milk substitutes market growth is the rising participation of females in the workforce. Female workforce participation, defined as the percentage of women who are either employed or actively seeking employment in the labor market, is primarily growing due to improved access to education. As women become better equipped with skills and qualifications, they gain more employment opportunities and achieve greater economic independence. Breast milk substitutes cater to the demands of the working female population by providing nutritionally balanced feeding options for infants when breastfeeding is not feasible due to time constraints, workplace limitations, or inadequate maternity leave provisions. Therefore, the rising female workforce participation significantly drives the growth of the breast milk substitutes market going forward.
