As more parents seek gentle, nourishing alternatives for their children’s nutrition, goat milk has emerged as a rising favourite, and for good reason. Naturally easier to digest than cow’s milk, goat milk is rich in essential nutrients and contains smaller fat globules and A2 protein, making it a suitable option for little ones with sensitive tummies.
Tapping into this growing demand, Kabrita, the world’s leading goat milk-based formula brand, has officially launched in Malaysia, offering science-backed, premium nutrition trusted by families in over 60 countries. With its roots in Dutch dairy expertise and a commitment to gentle care, Kabrita is set to redefine formula feeding for Malaysian parents who value both quality and comfort.
Organised by Taiyou International Sdn. Bhd., the exclusive distributor of Kabrita in Malaysia, the launch event united a dynamic mix of healthcare professionals, parenting media, key opinion consumers (KOCs), and families. The event was hosted by Ms. Eris Chew Mun, National Sales Manager of Taiyou International, who expressed her heartfelt excitement about Kabrita, both as a mother and as an expert in child nutrition.
“Learning about safer, gentler options like Kabrita excites me both professionally and personally. It’s truly a proud moment to introduce Kabrita to Malaysia,” said Eris.

In his keynote address, Mr. Donovan van der Voort, Business Lead Asia Pacific at Ausnutria, offered valuable insights into Kabrita’s remarkable global growth and its strong foundation in scientific excellence.

Produced in the Netherlands by Ausnutria, Kabrita is crafted in cutting-edge facilities with full farm-to-can traceability, ensuring the highest quality standards.

Today, Kabrita is available in more than 60 countries and stands as the fastest-growing goat milk-based infant formula brand globally.
Expert Insights and Meaningful Dialogue on Gentle Nutrition
Dietitian Nur Amelia
A major highlight of the event was an engaging talk by Dietitian Nur Amelia titled “Goat Milk Formula for Children – Why It’s Different and What Parents Should Know.” Drawing from her clinical and training expertise, she explained how goat milk’s natural A2 protein, smaller fat globules, and digestive-friendly properties make it a gentle alternative for many children, especially those with feeding sensitivities.
Adding to the depth of knowledge shared, the audience also viewed a special video message from Dr. Sum, Consultant Paediatrician, who addressed common misconceptions surrounding goat milk. He emphasised that while raw goat milk is unsuitable for infants, scientifically formulated and approved goat milk-based formulas like Kabrita are both nutritionally complete and safe for healthy babies.
The conversation continued with an insightful panel discussion moderated by Pharmacist Lim Enni, a practicing pharmacist and certified trainer with a special interest in maternal and child care. The panel brought together diverse perspectives from dietitians, pharmacists, and experienced mother-consumers, sparking valuable dialogue around formula feeding, infant gut comfort, and the practical considerations parents face when choosing the right nutrition for their little ones.
A Milestone Launch with an Interactive Experience
The event culminated in a symbolic moment as Mr. Donovan van der Voort, Ms. Tanya Nguyen of Ausnutria, and Mr. Wong Ching Yaw and Ms. Han Wan Chien from Taiyou International came together on stage for an official handshake, marking Kabrita’s proud entry into the Malaysian market. The launch ceremony not only signified Kabrita’s commitment to expanding its presence in Asia but also reinforced its mission to provide gentle, science-backed nutrition to families across the nation.
Adding an interactive element to the celebration, guests visited the Kabrita booth for a live scientific demonstration simulating how goat milk and cow milk behave in stomach acid. The visual comparison highlighted goat milk’s softer curd formation, emphasising its natural digestibility. Professional dietitians and pharmacists were on hand to walk parents and caregivers through the nutritional science behind goat milk, answer questions, and provide guidance.
Kabrita is now available in over 300 retail locations nationwide, including Alpro Pharmacies and Alpro Baby outlets. In the near future, Kabrita will also be listed in major baby retail chains across Malaysia.
