The Business
Made with love for our children and our planet.
We launched our e-commerce business in 2013 with a bamboo disposable diaper. Since then, we have added bamboo training pants, organic baby wash/shampoo, and organic baby lotion.
Diaper rash and irritation aren't just felt by our little ones, we feel it too!
Why bamboo? Bamboo is soft, strong, and super absorbent. It is naturally hypoallergenic & antibacterial, free of bleach and other harsh chemicals that can cause diaper rash.
Our planet can feel the difference as well!
Bamboo products are better for the environment. It is one of the fastest-growing sustainable resources on the planet and is grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. And it's biodegradable. Win-win!
The Market
In the diaper business, shit really happens! Disposable diapers are a $71 billion-a-year industry with an estimated 95% of mothers in the U.S. solely using disposable diapers for their children. From birth to potty training, a baby goes through an average of 7000 diaper changes.
The biodegradable baby diaper market surpassed $2.6 billion in 2021. Projections indicate that by 2031 the market value will be at $5.3 billion with a compound annual growth rate of 7.5%.
With more social awareness than ever, the demand for biodegradable plant-based diapers is growing due to concerns among parents regarding the side effects of conventional diapers made from chemical-based materials.

Jessica Hansen
Owner
While holding a full-time job and raising a family, Jessica had an idea. The idea was to develop a sustainable diaper that was gentle on baby’s skin and friendly to the environment. It was born from her love for children and the need to preserve the planet for future generations. 10-years later, Jessica now juggles her time as the CEO of Andy Pandy and as a Mom who teaches her kids about life by having first-hand experience of the different cultures through world schooling. Jessica is proud of what Andy Pandy Kids has accomplished as a small family business and is committed to making a positive impact through Andy Pandy products and looks forward to leading Andy Pandy in the years that come.
Objectives/Future
We have never wanted or intended to become a large corporation. However, we understand that growth is needed in order to survive the cutthroat business world.
With an already existing presence in the natural baby market, we intend on expanding our product line with more organic and sustainable baby products such as baby wipes and more.
We have a team in place with the objective of sourcing new products, expanding our reach into retail stores, and starting selling in countries outside of the United States and are looking for an investor/partner to help us get to this next level.
