The "Global Pet Care Market - Outlook & Forecast 2023-2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global pet care market is expected to surpass $400 billion by 2028 from $295 billion in 2022, growing at a CAGR of 5.22%

The global pet care market is highly fragmented as multiple players exist across various market attributes. The pet food segment has witnessed the presence of numerous entities in the market; however, the global pet care market share has been dominated by international players such as Mars Inc., Nestle Purina, and J.M Smucker Company. Further, multiple local companies create healthy competition, leading competitors to diversify their product portfolio. With an increasing demand for chemical-free and safe products, companies have started manufacturing more nutritious products with fewer chemicals or preservatives.

North America holds the most prominent share of the global pet care market, accounting for over 49% in 2022. Furthermore, the U.S. has a significant stake in the North American pet care market. The U.S. market is driven by specialty stores, mass merchandisers, and modern grocery retailers such as supermarkets and hypermarkets. Also, many private labels have entered the market, seeing the massive potential for new products and variety in the pet food market in the United States.

However, compared to other food industries, pet owners are much more brand loyal; thus, branding is one of the critical factors in the pet food industry. Frequent product recalls might affect the private labels; therefore, they must gain the confidence of the pet owners through branding and promotions.

MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS

Increasing Technological Integration

Technology has become an essential part of everyday life, and the pet care market is finding ways to integrate it to interact with their pets. In this mobile-centric world, pet owners have found ways to connect with their pets using technology to monitor their health, book grooming appointments, or watch over them through webcams. Technology has allowed pet owners to interact with their pets while still engaging in everyday activities. One of the prominent pet grooming software is MoeGo. The cloud-based solution is designed to help pet grooming salons handle client appointments, communication, and service agreements through a centralized dashboard.

Rising Pet Humanisation

The humanization of pets has created new opportunities and supported the future growth of the pet care market. It focuses on pet health and wellness, sustainable products, and eco-friendly, natural, and locally sourced ingredients. The pet owners' expectations have shifted from high-quality pet food to humanized food. Several pet owners have started buying pet food products that contain natural or organic, human-grade ingredients. The desire to treat pets like a child or a family member drives the sales of pet products and services. Several players like Pet Place, Camp Bow Wow, The Pooch Mobile, and PetSmart offer pet daycare, retail, boarding, and grooming services.

Growing Demand for Chemical-Free Products

Pet owners are willing to pay premium prices to maintain the health and hygiene of their pets. Many pet owners are switching from pet grooming products that contain artificial additives to alternatives comprising natural or organic ingredients, which can ensure the health and well-being of pets. Recently, pet owners have become increasingly aware of the dangers of using chemical and toxic grooming products.

The owners desire safe, sustainable, and eco-friendly alternatives for pet grooming, which can potentially reduce the carbon footprint of their pets. Moreover, natural and non-toxic pet products such as grooming, dental care, and food products, among many others, prevent dangerous diseases and allergies and positively influence pets' overall health.
