This article will share the current situation, trends and investment opportunities of the global maternal and infant market, and discuss how companies can respond to the challenges and seize market opportunities.

Global annual birth rates, mortality rates, and natural population change rates and projections

From 1950 to 2024, the global birth rate will fall from 3.68% to 1.66%, with an average annual decline of about 0.74%. The mortality rate fell from 1.95% to 0.75% during the same period, and the natural population change rate fell from 1.73% to 0.91%, and the birth rate is expected to continue to decline, while the mortality rate will start to rise in 2025, so there is a chance that the population change will enter negative growth in 2085.

In the face of declining birth and mortality rates, indicating that the elderly population will rise, the market should expand production or transform to high value-added maternal and infant products and elderly care products to cope with future market demand changes. In response to this trend, Kimberly-Clark, a well-known maternity and baby products company, has successfully expanded from a specialty of maternity and baby products to adult care, offering Dependent adult diapers and Poise nursing pads.

Birth rates on all continents of the globe
