Procter & Gamble introduces luxury aloe-infused diapers made in China under the brand bumbum at Target, as Pampers and Luvs lose market share to imported rivals. P&G aims to boost sales in baby care amid price hikes due to tariffs. Competitor Kimberly-Clark also offers Chinese-made diapers, reflecting a shift in the market.

Parasol founder focuses on cost-cutting to maintain prices for customers. Chinese-made diapers continue to grow in market share, presenting a threat to traditional brands. Industry experts highlight the impact of tariffs on consumer choices.
