The history of Mead Johnson is long and distinguished. The company has made outstanding contributions to the industry, developing nutritional formulations for infants and mothers based on scientific research. To help create a good start for children's growth, the company continues to innovate and reform its products. Renowned pioneering products from Mead Johnson include Dextri-Mal-tose, the first infant food clinically tested in the United States and recommended by physicians; Pablum, the first vitamin-fortified instant cereal; and the Enfa A+ series launched in the Chinese market with added DHA and ARA.

Mead Johnson products are manufactured by Mead Johnson Nutritionals in the U.S., primarily adding two unsaturated fatty acids—DHA and ARA (arachidonic acid)—to promote brain and retina development. Additionally, Mead Johnson (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd. launched the "Enfa A+ Intelligence Enhancement Program" to assist parents in nurturing the next generation in China.

"Mead Johnson's leadership position in pediatric nutrition science was established by our founder, E. Mead Johnson Sr. His child once faced severe feeding difficulties, necessitating special nutritional formulations for survival at that time," said Stephen W. Golsby, Chairman of Mead Johnson globally. "We take our responsibility seriously and are committed to creating a good start for children's growth, and our contributions have earned the trust and respect of healthcare professionals and parents worldwide."

In 1905, Edward Mead Johnson Sr. founded Mead Johnson. At the time, pediatric nutrition science was a crucial issue affecting infant survival. For example, in 1905, about 135 out of every 1,000 infants in the U.S. died before their first birthday. Half of these infant deaths were due to gastrointestinal diseases, and most doctors were helpless against these conditions. Contemporary pediatric nutrition research focuses on promoting the potential brain development of infants and providing specialized feeding products tailored to the unique needs of almost every infant—a goal unimaginable decades ago.

"Each country has different cultural customs, but all children around the world deserve and should have adequate nutrition to ensure their healthy growth," said Mr. Lee Yik Kai, General Manager of the China region. Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for infants, so Mead Johnson is dedicated to developing infant formula products close to breast milk. Their commitment and the Enfa series reflect Mead Johnson's enthusiasm in meeting customer needs and demonstrate their innovation and leadership in pediatric nutrition science.

Mead Johnson's headquarters is located in Evansville, Indiana, USA, with over 4,500 employees. The company markets more than 70 products in over 60 countries and regions, including North America, Latin America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
