Pet foods are highly nutritious and energy dense food product made specifically to meet the nutritional requirements of pets. Pet foods are formulated using a wide range of ingredients including feed grains, meat, poultry, seafood, etc. A rise in the number of households with pets in Saudi Arabia, due to an increase in the income of the consumers, has significantly contributed in driving the demand for pet food in the country. Moreover, the pet owners have become more aware and informed about their pet’s nutrition and health. This has upscaled the demand for pet food in the country.
Saudi Arabia Pet Food Market Drivers/Constraints:
Rising pet care awareness has resulted in a humanisation trend wherein an increasing number of owners treat their pets as family members. This has led to an increase in the demand for more nutritious pet food made with scientific formulations, thereby augmenting the market growth in the region.
Since some of the essential nutrients are lost during processing, the manufacturers are developing new and improved pet food variants in order to cater to the needs of all pets, ranging from dogs and cats to birds and reptiles, in turn, propelling the growth of the market.
Increasing trends in pet humanisation have created a highly competitive pet food market and manufacturers face major challenges from pet owners that are prone to blame pet food manufacturers in case their pets have any type of health issues.
