Kendal Nutricare (KNC), a rapid-growth and Queens Award winning British family business, is seeking to disrupt the $40-billion per-year global infant-formula market by developing an innovative, British-made baby-milk that is nutritionally-superior, more naturally and sustainably-made and scientifically closer to the gold-standard of breastmilk.The prototype recipe (code-name 'Kendamil-Gold'), will be developed using a fundamentally innovative formulation that combines novel, natural ingredients with the KNC teams' 500+ years' cumulative expertise in infant nutrition, to provide infants the most nutritionally-complete, environmentally-sustainable baby-milk in the world. This disruptive formulation will be closer to human-milk by incorporating several breastmilk components linked to cognitive development and strengthened immunity in children.Development of the Kendamil-Gold prototype will comprise an 18 month project involving 24 KNC team members including R&D technicians, food scientists, quality assurance professionals, laboratory technicians, production engineers and senior management, carried out at KNC's world-class, infant-grade, BRC AA-grade production facilities in Kendal, gateway to the English Lake District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Successful development of a novel, nutritionally-superior baby-milk is estimated to deliver material export revenue, significant re-investment in British agriculture and new local skilled jobs, demonstrating to industry a more ethical, environmentally-friendly standard of manufacturing while reinforcing British R&D and manufacturing excellence on the global stage.

Kendal Nutricare （KNC）是一家快速增长的英国家族企业，曾获得女王奖（Queens Award），该公司正寻求通过开发一种创新的英国制造婴儿奶粉来颠覆每年400亿美元的全球婴儿配方奶粉市场。这种婴儿奶粉营养丰富，更自然、更可持续，在科学上更接近母乳的黄金标准。原型配方（代号“Kendamil-Gold”）将采用一种根本性的创新配方，将新颖的天然成分与KNC团队500多年来在婴儿营养方面的累积专业知识相结合，为婴儿提供世界上营养最完整、环境最可持续的婴儿奶。这种具有颠覆性的配方将加入几种与儿童认知发育和增强免疫力相关的母乳成分，从而更接近人乳。肯德尔黄金原型的开发将包括一个18个月的项目，涉及24名KNC团队成员，包括研发技术人员、食品科学家、质量保证专业人员、实验室技术人员、生产工程师和高级管理人员，在KNC位于肯德尔的世界级婴儿级、BRC aa级生产设施中进行，肯德尔是联合国教科文组织世界遗产英国湖区的门户。据估计，一种新型的、营养优越的婴儿奶粉的成功开发将带来可观的出口收入，对英国农业的重大再投资，以及新的当地技术工作岗位，向工业界展示了一种更合乎道德、更环保的制造业标准，同时加强了英国在全球舞台上的研发和制造优势。
