據外媒報道,澳大利亞兩大乳業巨頭百嘉公司(Bega)與澳佳寶(Blackmores)合作推出嬰兒配方奶粉之后,又盯上了亞洲老齡人口作為下一個目標。
澳佳寶總裁霍爾蓋特(Christine Holgate)表示,百嘉與澳佳寶加起來擁有200年的經驗,去年這兩家企業結成了伙伴關系,下一步將合作開拓醫學用途食品。
霍爾蓋特(Christine Holgate)還表示,老齡配方奶粉是個商機。預計到2020年中國會有30%的人口超過65歲。澳洲也是一個快速老齡化的國家,在過去3年里,100萬人邁進50歲,以不同的方式來解決人口老齡化問題將很重要。
Infant formula kicked off the partnership but the teams are already turning their attention to other products. Holgate says there is an opportunity in formulas for the ageing population.
“On holiday recently at Pearl Beach I was walking down the road and a 70-year-old lady stopped me and said she loved what I was doing with Bega, but when was I bringing out the adult formulas?” she says.
“Thirty per cent of people are forecast to be over the age of 65 in China by 2020. In Australia we are a rapidly ageing population and over the past three years one million people turned 50. Looking at different ways to support an ageing population is going to be important.”
