M2 - Tue Jul 15, 3:10AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3jxmks/baby_food_in_japan) has announced the addition of the "Baby Food in Japan" report to their offering. 'Baby Food In Japan' analyses the trends in the baby food market for 2012-2016, with forecasts to 2018. It examines how live birth rates, breastfeeding trends, the economic crisis, new product and packaging developments, changing attitudes and safety concerns have affected the market for baby milks, cereals, meals, drinks and finger foods. Report highlights: - Pharmacies continue to account for a significant share of all baby food sales in value terms, thanks to their importance in milks. Other outlets such as supermarkets and convenience stores have, however, been steadily eroding pharmacies' share, although the last few years have seen some revival in the fortune of pharmacies and other specialist outlets, due to their ability to offer a wider range of products than some of the supermarkets. - The future for the Japanese baby food market does not seem bright. Against the backdrop of a continuing fall in the number of births, retail sales are not expected to show any overall growth in real terms by 2018, although at current prices an increase of over 5% is forecast. The milks market is expected to continue to decline. If a slight upturn occurs in the economy, this will be made up of baby milk and other baby food/drink products. - A number of factors lie behind the overall trend of falling figures, including changing lifestyles, women marrying later, the economic slump in which Japan has been plunged for the past decade or so, non-child-friendly employment policies which have been very slow to change, the phenomenon of "parasite singles" (men and women aged 20 to 34 who remain in the parental home, despite being employed, contribute little to the household and postpone marriage), and a general mood which is not buoyant, particularly in the wake of the 2011 tsunami. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - Background to the Market - Market Profile - Distribution - The Suppliers - Other Manufacturers - Foreign Trade - Future Trends - Appendix: Retail Prices Companies Mentioned - Ajisenshioji - Danone Japan - Glico Group - Kewpie Corporation - Meiji Holdings - Morinaga Milk Industry - Pigeon Corporation - Snow Brand Milk/Bean Stalk Snow Co - Wakodo Company Ltd For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3j...d_in_japan

KGaA, P&G., Reckitt Benckiser & Unilever to Dominate to 2018" report to their offering. One of the main drivers in this market is the growing urbanization around the world. The increase in the economic development of numerous countries, the increasing disposable income of consumers, and the adoption of Western lifestyles are some of the factors attributing to the growth in urbanization which, in turn, is driving market growth. Slow-release or controlled-release technology refers to the controlled release or delivery of compounds or materials over time or in response to some stimuli. The use of this technology is increasing among manufacturers of fabric conditioners as a means to control the release of actives/raw materials such as enzymes, chemicals, anti-static agents, and fragrances, which improves the efficiency and performance of the product. The use of such technology not only helps improve the overall quality of products, but also the efficiency of manufacturers and also helps them to control costs. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges hindering market growth is the near saturation of the market for fabric conditioners in developed countries such as France, the UK, Germany, and the US, which is slowing down the growth of the overall market. Key vendors dominating this space are - Colgate-Palmolive Co. - Henkel AG & Co. KGaA - Procter & Gamble Co. - Reckitt Benckiser Group plc - Unilever Group. Other vendors mentioned in the report are - Church & Dwight Co.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wgp7d4/global_breast) has announced the addition of the "Global Breast Pumps Market 2012-2016" report to their offering. Global Breast Pump Market Expected To Grow At A CAGR Of 7.72 Percent Over The Period 2012-2016 The report, the Global Breast Pump Market 2012-2016, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market in the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions; it also covers the Global Breast Pump market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the authors' team said: One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Breast Pumps market is the increasing reimbursement policies. According to the ACA in 2013, breast pump manufacturers require health insurance carriers to provide breast pumps to pregnant and nursing mothers. Hence, insurance companies essentially cover the cost of breast pumps, along with lactation counseling and various other precautionary health services. This may include any type of breast pumps in the market. As a result, most of the leading vendors are focusing more on the production of insured breast pumps. According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the reasonable pricing of breast pumps. This is because the use of breast pumps is growing due to a combination of factors such as higher awareness among expectant mothers about the advantages of sophisticated and proper breastfeeding and increased safety offered by new prenatal diagnostic techniques. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the threat of brand loyalty for small companies. Most women prefer to use branded devices manufactured and distributed by reputable vendors with significant market presence. Key Topics Covered 1. Executive Summary 2. List of Abbreviations 3.
