Europe: Largest revenue generating region for baby carriers

In Europe, especially in countries such as Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and the UK, parents and caregivers spend relatively high amounts on baby carriers that come with safety features and are multifunctional and convenient. This demand for multifunctional baby carriers in this region is augmented by improvements in product quality and advances in functionality and performance. Stringent rules and regulations regarding baby safety products in Europe is prompting vendors in the market to make significant improvements with respect to safety measures for head and neck protection of children, especially against frontal impact. Some of the prominent vendors in the baby carrier market in Europe are Chicco, Dorel, and Mothercare.

According to Brijesh Kumar Choubey, a lead analyst at Technavio, specializing in research on toys and baby products, “Manufacturers in the market are now designing baby carries that come with additional features to enhance the comfort and convenience of the wearer. This trend is spurred by a rise in the demand for enhanced safety features and the implementation of legislations that mandate extra protection for children up to 15 months. The UltraSoft Infant Carrier by Chicco, for instance, features unique cuddle pockets, which allows the baby to feel the parent’s touch and a snap-on bib.”
