Demand for Natural, Vegan, and Plant-based Protein in Dog Food will Surge
The number of consumers shifting to veganism is multiplying dramatically around the world, and the trend is no longer limited to human consumers.
Pet food industry is also witnessing a drastic rise in awareness about the potential harms of animal-based dog food and positive impacts of plant-based protein in dog food, which is giving rise to new trends in the dog food market.
A mounting number of dog parents are inclined towards giving plant-based nutrition to their pets and this is triggering the demand for meatless protein in dog food.
With more pet parents seeking high quality dog protein derived from plant or natural sourced, a mounting number of stakeholders in the high protein dog food market are introducing dog food formulas using proteins derived from potato, corn, legumes, soy, wheat, etc.
Growing demand for animal-free dog protein is also triggering heavy investments in biotechnological research & development in order to derive novel protein sources that can replicate similar proteins as their conventional meat counterparts.
Manufacturers are catering to the end users’ needs by inculcating sustainability and veganism in their brand strategies, and this will boost the trend of discovering innovative plant protein sources in the high protein dog food market, in the coming future.
