Driving Pet Food Innovation: Market Expansion from 2024 – 2034 – A Lucrative Investment Prospect

Pet Food Processing Market

The Pet Food Processing Market is expected to be valued at US$ 6,684.4 million in 2024. In contrast, the 2023 value was marked at US$ 6,348.0 million. The market is expected to progress at a modest rate over the forecast period, with a CAGR of 4.0%. By 2034, the value of the market is forecasted to have inflated to US$ 9,112.7 million.

The need for pet food processing is growing along with rising adoption rates of pets and the subsequent demand for pet food. A growing number of pet owners are becoming knowledgeable about the benefits of specialized pet food and thus the demand is being churned for pet food processing. Further, the variety of pet food desired by pet owners is being fulfilled by pet food processing.

Pet food processing is consistently taking steps forward with the advent of advanced equipment and techniques. A process like rendering is allowing manufacturers to cut down on costs. In addition to meat-based raw materials, manufacturers are also using plant-based materials to appeal to the vegan and vegetarian crowd.

While pet food adoption is rising around the world, some pet owners are still hesitant about pet food. Objections are raised against the unchecked quality of raw materials as well as the use of artificial preservatives. Thus, the market has stumbling blocks in its path.

 “The trend among pet owners is to treat the pet as a member of the family. Thus, the focus of pet owners is not just on nutrient-rich essential food. Pet owners are also buying bite-sized treats in the form of kibbles or biscuits for their pets. The manufacturing of pet treats represents a significant opportunity for pet food processing,” Says Nandini Roy Choudhury, Client Partner at Future Market Insights
