From 2024, the forecast for infant food calories supply per capita in Canada shows a gradual decline: 4.84 in 2024, 4.73 in 2025, 4.62 in 2026, 4.52 in 2027, and 4.42 in 2028, measured in kilocalories per capita per day.
In 2023, the supply stood at approximately 4.95. The year-on-year percentage decreases are consistent with an ongoing decline. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests an average annual decrease in calorie supply, reflecting a possibly shrinking demand or changes in dietary patterns for infants.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards more nutrient-dense but lower caloric foods, increasing awareness of health issues, and demographic changes that could continue to impact the infant food market in Canada.
