Kendamil infant formula is transferred to Target and made available through the company’s national network of stores. Bub’s Australia infant formula will be distributed across Walmart’s national network of stores, as well as Albertsons Companies’ and The Kroger Company’s national network of subsidiary stores.

Under Operation Fly Formula, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the General Services Administration (GSA), and the Department of Defense (DOD) are partnering to import infant formula from other nations that meets U.S. health and safety standards, so it can get to store shelves faster.
