Milna is an Indonesian brand of infant and toddler nutrition products specializing in complementary foods (MPASI), baby cereals, biscuits, snacks, and fruit-based products. The brand is owned by PT Sanghiang Perkasa (KALBE Nutritionals), a subsidiary of PT Kalbe Farma Tbk., one of Southeast Asia’s largest healthcare and pharmaceutical companies. Milna is one of Indonesia’s best-known baby food brands and has expanded into several international markets in Asia.

Milna was introduced in 1987 with the launch of Milna Baby Biscuit, designed to support the nutritional needs of Indonesian infants during their early developmental years. The brand became part of PT Sanghiang Perkasa after business consolidation in 1993, allowing it to benefit from KALBE’s growing nutrition business and research capabilities.

During the late 1990s and early 2000s, Milna expanded beyond biscuits into complementary foods and cereals:

• 1999: Introduction of Milna Bubur Khusus (special baby cereal).

• 2001: Launch of Milna Toddler, while Milna Baby Biscuit expanded into Malaysia, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka.

• 2014: Introduction of Milna Organic Cereal.

• Later years saw expansion into fruit purees, baby puffs, and additional snack categories.
