Nutrition & Baby Care
OE established its nutricare division in 1991 to be the exclusive distributor in Taiwan of New Zealand milk products as well as nutritional supplements. The company has participated in joint research efforts by experts from New Zealand and Taiwan for new products specifically developed to suit the needs of the Asia-Pacific market. The nutricare division’s infant formulas and products include Karihome, Babecare, Ostricare, Supracare, and Infacare.
A survey conducted by market intelligence provider TNS in 2009 revealed that OE continues to be the leader in goat milk formulas, while the company’s cow milk formulas also ranked among the top three.
The division’s goal from the very beginning has been to enhance the nutrition of babies in Taiwan so they may one day grow into fit, healthy adults.
