Agency hopes to cash in on adults' taste for breast milk

Agency hopes to cash in on adults' taste for breast milk

Young mothers are being hired by agencies to breastfeed rich adults in the south China city of Shenzhen, earning from 8,000 yuan (US$1,303) to 15,000 yuan a month for the service.

Customers at present range from the parents of babies who have lost faith in Chinese baby formula to adults who believe breast milk would boost their health, the Southern Metropolis Daily reported.

Lin Jun, a Henan Province native, told the newspaper he was aiming to develop the breastfeeding business among China's rich adults.

His job is to find young mothers for his customers, charging the customer 6,000 yuan and the mothers 2,000 yuan.
