The global breast pump market size was estimated at USD 1.64 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 2.92 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.55% from 2026 to 2033. The key factors driving the market growth include the rising global women's employment rates, improved healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies, and government initiatives to support working mothers.
The significant rise in female labor force participation in India, as highlighted by the Economic Survey 2025, which reported an 18.4% increase over the past five years, serves as a key driver for the breast pump industry. As more women join or return to the workforce, especially new mothers, the demand for convenient and efficient breastfeeding solutions has surged significantly. Breast pumps enable working mothers to maintain their breastfeeding routines while managing professional commitments, offering flexibility, improved infant nutrition, and emotional reassurance.
Furthermore, increasing breastfeeding complications amongst women is expected to create demand for breast pumps in the near term. Breastfeeding complications include poor attachment, breast engorgement, and nipple pain in women. Thus, breastfeeding becomes more difficult because of these issues among women. According to Nemours, a non-profit children's health organization, most women discontinue breastfeeding their newborn babies too soon, resulting in an increase in the need for breast pumps.
Growing consumer awareness and supportive government initiatives are anticipated to propel the global demand for breast pumps. For instance, The Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI), which promotes evidence-based practices for breastfeeding success, was established by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) to enhance breastfeeding rates and assist families in achieving their breastfeeding goals. Similarly, in August 2024, Momcozy launched a campaign to empower mothers and break breastfeeding barriers. This initiative included a comprehensive webinar series covering topics such as pumping, breastfeeding, and transitioning back to work confidently. During this campaign, Momcozy partnered with several organizations, including the American College of Nurse-Midwives. These initiatives by industry players to raise awareness among new mothers about breast pumping and the use of breast pumps are expected to drive demand for these products in the coming years.
"In the U.S., new mothers receive very little support, and we are too often caught in judgmental 'mommy wars' over the right way to feed r baby. What new moms need is encouragement to thrive on their real feeding journeys, most new mothers want to breastfeed, and the reality is most moms will introduce pumping, sometimes exclusively, for various reasons. And they deserve to feel proud of their journey. It's time for our breastfeeding conversations to be more inclusive of pumping and aligning with real experiences."Said Sarah O'Leary, mom of two and CEO of Willow
Governments of various countries are encouraging mothers to breastfeed babies up to the age of 6 months. Moreover, many international agencies are arranging campaigns to raise awareness about breastfeeding. Various market players, such as Medela LLC, Laura & Co., Newell Brands, and Ameda, as well as universities like Washington University & Fudan University, are raising awareness among women about breastfeeding and its benefits by organizing campaigns and providing informative magazines. These factors are expected to drive the market.
Breast pumps help improve accessibility to perform the everyday tasks. A breast pump is covered under Medicare, but it does not cover disposable items. Medicare Part B beneficiaries pay 20% of the approved cost of the product, and the remaining 80% is paid by Medicare. Better coverage and reimbursement policies for breast pump products are also likely to help drive growth in the breast pump market. In addition, the rising number of elderly care centers due to the increasing geriatric population base across the globe is projected to drive the market growth.
