That's because it's not declining. 2016 saw the highest number of births since 2000. 18.5 million babies born in Chinese hospitals in 2016, an 11.5% increase on 2015. The birth rate has actually been on the increase since about 2010 and levelled off slightly last year.

I think the focus for A2 should be to grow their market share and hold or grow current margins because lets face it, this is a pretty big market. If China success can translate to rest of Asia, the population size is 4x higher and therefore plenty of growth opportunities.
What a quote like this neglects is currently many of Chinas current population can’t afford or justify a relatively expensive branded product like A2 even with a population declining the average incomes are rising significantly over time meaning a much higher proportion can afford or justify A2’s product and therefore their available market within China should actually be growing over time even with a smaller population.
edit; thats assuming the population actually declines which I’m not sure it will

You are a parent. What do you do? Have a few kids and feed them grungy old Dairy Dale milk. Or have one very special kid and do the very best for it and give it A2?

Total number of births vs births per woman are two different things.

As i stated it declined slightly from 2016 to 2017, but 2017 was still the 2nd highest number of births since 2000, remembering that in 2016 there was a massive increase.

Perhaps this could read: "its surprising most people buy this normal milk , i tried it on my cereal microwaved the cereal and the milk soured , it did not happen withthe expensive anchor milk. must be something missing in the milk?
