- There has been a spurt in the online sale of baby food which has led to omni-channel shift of the popular offline retailers such as Coles and Woolsworth to their own online ordering platform.

The accelerated growth of Australia baby food is expected to be driven by the rising demand from Chinese and other Asian countries.

The market share for organic baby food is expected to increase and command a respectable share thereby causing the slow growth in demand for conventional and inorganic baby food.
