Company mission

To support all parents in their feeding journey with a range of uncompromised, sustainable infant nutrition products.

Our take

Kendamil produces locally-sourced and sustainably manufactured organic baby formula – the only product of its kind made in the UK. Though the brand only launched in 2015, it’s actually owned and fundedby Kendal Nutricare and operates from a site that’s been manufacturing formula since the 1960s.

Thanks to a surge in popularity in the UK when its products were endorsed by the Duke and Duchess of York as well as key export deals into Asia, Kendamil was listed as one of the 1,000 fastest growing companies in Europe by the Financial Times in 2020.

The company has a long way to go to overtake multinationals major players like Danone and Nestle, who together account for around 80% of the baby formula market share. However, with its unique subscription service, expansion into over 40 countries around the world, as well as the rise in demand for locally sourced, organic sustainable products, Kendamil looks set to continue its growth for a sustained period of growth.
