Canada Baby Food Market Outlook - 2026
The Canada baby food market size was valued at $1.3 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach $2.4 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 7.60% from 2019 to 2026. Baby food refers to the food prepared for infants aged between four-six months and two years. It is typically made up of minced and mashed vegetables, cereals, meats and fruits. Over the past few years, packaged baby food has been extensively adopted by parents owing to convenience and healthier nutrition offered by these foods. In addition, increase in awareness among people regarding the various health advantages of feeding baby food to infants has considerably fuelled the growth of the Canada baby food market.
Rise in the number working women has led to an increased inclination toward packaged baby food owing to less time available to breastfeed or prepare food at home. In addition, nowadays parents are willing to invest on high-quality and expensive baby food for the well-being of their infants. These factors have created a significant impact on the growth of the Canada baby food market.
Dietary practices regarding baby food have evolved over the years. In addition, there is increased awareness among consumers about the importance of adequate nutrition for healthy growth of infants. Owing to this, numerous brands have upgraded the nutritional components in their baby food products by adding functional and organic ingredients. In addition, the Canadian government has taken initiatives through campaigns to spread awareness regarding infant care.
Canada Baby Food Market
By Product Type
Cereal segments dominates the Canada baby food market and is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period.
The Canadian government has taken several initiatives such as campaigns and advertisements, to help promote the health of infants. This increases the awareness and knowledge among consumers and thus, encourages them to provide adequate nutrition to their infants, which is majorly obtained by consuming baby food. Furthermore, organic and clean-labelled products reflect the functional and healthy ingredients used in the baby food products, which are in great demand especially by the new generation parents. However, low birth rate and stringent quality checks by the government and food departments regarding the restricted use of ingredients in baby food can hamper the Canada baby food market.
Latest R&D in the baby food sector have discovered the benefits of probiotic and prebiotic in baby food. Thus, prebiotics and probiotics that are classified as generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA are now added to commercial infant formulas. This can be viewed as an opportunity by the manufacturers to gain an edge in the Canada baby food market demand.

To Canada with a child - Hello Canada!
- Arrival
1 2776
When I was asked about the nuances of moving with a child, the first thing I did was to look at old posts, with the feeling that everything had already been described a long time ago. It turned out that the information appears in a number of posts, but a general post would not hurt.
Especially considering the accumulated experience over the past time. In something I will repeat, something new will be. nine0013
Flight
Let me remind you that we flew with a transfer in Zurich. The flight was probably the most difficult moment for us. My daughter was three years old at the time. We had a fear of strangers in the maximum phase and this meant continuous sitting on our hands with occasional tantrums, if God forbid someone looked. The only respite we had was in the mother and child room at the transfer airport. It has everything for both toddlers and older kids. Lots of toys, equipped kitchen and high chairs, changing tables (with everything you need) and even cribs to sleep in. nine0013
With us, in hand luggage, we had a standard set for a long trip from home. I think it makes no sense to paint a lot, any mom is aware of what is required. I can only say that the airport and airline staff were polite and helped as much as possible. In Moscow, they missed everything that a child needs without question: a liter bottle of water (and I myself asked if it was possible), a jar of dry mix, a bunch of jars of purees.
Mixture and purees, by the way, are allowed to be imported, so we also had no problems with importing in Montreal. On planes, we were always warmed up bottles (a bottle of water) without question and supplied with water. We handed over our stroller at the exit to the plane and got it at the exit. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have grunted there from the amount of our hand luggage :). nine0013
First days
Take everything with a margin, at least for a couple of days. This will eliminate the need to frantically rush about in search of children's consumables :). A stroller helps a lot, you can take it on the spot (cheap canes at Walmart). However, in the Montreal subway with a stroller is extremely inconvenient. Huge stairs and in most cases escalators are only going up. In Toronto, the situation is better, but not at all stations. Most toilets have a corner with a changing table or even a separate booth; The first days will have to drag a lot, but it's not scary.
nine0013
Nutrition and diapers
In addition, baby food here is very different from what is sold in Russia. For example, we were looking for meat in jars for a very long time, it was simply nowhere to be found. Because of this, we quickly switched to a blender and regular meat, which is excellent here and does not cause any reactions in the baby. The difference is in the consistency and in the products. There are simply no potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini in jars. But all this is also available fresh and a blender to help. From the famous brands Heinz and Gerber. Here, for example, is the Canadian website Heinz, where you can see what kind of food is offered to children here. The rest of the brands will be about the same. Mixtures, such as spaghetti with meat, are a must try for yourself, as in some cases they overdo it with spices. nine0013
Mixes, this is also fine, but it's clear, everything is different. There are, by the way, liquid mixtures, that is, already diluted.
I don’t know what the trick is, but everything that is available in the form of a powder can be bought in liquid form. It seems to be considered that this option is better. We used in Moscow a mixture based on goat's milk. There are none here. As a result, we settled on Similac Sensitive Lactose-Free (when you arrive, register on their website, they will send coupons for an additional discount).
We originally made porridge ourselves. The only difficulty was to find a store with cereals at reasonable prices. In Montreal, we had no time for that; we returned to cereals already in Ontario. And so there are any cereals. nine0013
Diapers tried probably all manufacturers. As a result, we settled on Huggies, although they were not used in Moscow, but there were Japanese ones ... you can forget about them here. It is interesting that only recently they had panties in the local sale, before that they were only for potty training and regular diapers.
It is better to guess all purchases for promotions, you can save decently.
The main places where we buy are Costco and Walmart. Sometimes, of course, we buy in other networks, if there is a promotion. For prices, you can look at the Walmart website, there you just need to get attached to someone in the store. nine0013
Clothes
There are a lot of branded stores here (Children's Place, Gap, etc.) and they also have promotions :). You can also watch Sears, Winners and even Zellers and Walmart. It is only necessary to carefully choose what would be cotton, not synthetics. The only thing is that good shoes are worth taking. There are not so many “correct” shoes here and they are quite decently priced (mm, if it’s rude, then somewhere from $ 70).
In Montreal, I really liked the L'Aubainerie store. Children's clothes are cute and of good quality, there are also for the little ones. Including diapers (there is a myth that they are not here 🙂). nine0013
Entertainment
There's plenty of that here (I'm talking about Toronto here).
Lots of playgrounds and wildlife parks. Lots of groups for moms and kids. For older kids, even more entertainment, but already requiring the financial participation of parents (it's stupid to go to an amusement park and not ride;)). We are still small for this, we will grow up - we will tell you how it is here. There are enough toys for every taste and budget.
Adaptation
At our age, it seems to me that my daughter did not even notice that we live somewhere else. The locals have to get used to the microbes, and adults can’t get away from it either. There is also a lack of understanding of adults who speak English (what they want with their Hi). But all this is somehow uncritical against the background of the advantages that are here. When he grows up, he will start teaching his parents what and how is right here :). nine0013

Alexander K.
Tinos, thank you very much for your story, it was interesting to read. The question is ripe - are there many parks everywhere, or is this area so successful for you?
And one more thing - what about development schools and other things that at your age are already quite profitable? nine0013
delivered to the USA on a military aircraft baby food photo: Jon Cherry/Getty Images
Health
In the United States, there is a severe shortage of infant formula due to supply chain disruption and the closure of a Michigan factory.
The scarce product was brought on a military transport plane from Germany. nine0013
https://p.dw.com/p/4BiEV
Advertisement
A US military aircraft loaded with over 31 tons of scarce infant formula landed in Indiana on Sunday, May 22. It arrived from the American air base "Ramstein", located in the west of Germany, in the federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The baby food brought in is enough to fill more than half a million bottles.
Out of stock - for a variety of reasons
There has been an acute shortage of infant formula in the US for several months now. The reason for this is a number of circumstances. Initially, powdered baby food production declined due to supply chain disruption and staffing shortages due to the COVID-19 pandemic.. Then in February, US pharmaceutical company Abbott was forced to close a Michigan baby food plant after the death of two babies.
The tragedy allegedly occurred due to infection with pathogenic bacteria.
