Global Pet Food Market to Reach US$ 172.27 Billion by 2032

Pet food is defined as any commercial feed that is prepared and distributed for consumption by pets. It is usually specific to the type of animals such as dog food, cat food, etc. Leftovers from the human industry may also be used in pet food through a process called rendering.

Owing to an increase in the nuclear families, aging population and growing urbanisation rates, people have started turning to animals for companionship. As a result, there has been a major rise in the global pet population in recent years, due to which, there has been an increase in the demand for pet foods. According to Expert Market Research, the global pet food market reached a value of US$ 112.96 Billion in 2023 and is further expected to reach US$ 172.27 Billion by 2032.

There are several factors that are stimulating the growth of the global market for pet food. With rising pet population, there has been a trend of pet humanisation which has made pet owners to treat their pets as their family members. Consequently, pet owners are now conscious about the well-being of their pets and are ready to increase their expenditure on nutritional and high-quality pet food. Moreover, increasing cases of obesity and other diseases among pets have augmented the demand for nutritious and organic products.
