Cat Food Market 2022 Key Methods, Historical Analysis, Application, Technology, Trends And Opportunities
Premiumization and humanization trends are projected to
remain chief factors driving sales of cat food in the upcoming decade.
According to a recent report by Future Market Insights (FMI), the cat food
market is set to surpass US$ 65 Bn rising at a CAGR of 4.8% through
2031.
Demand for higher-quality, nutritionally sound foods
for pets is continuing to rise on a global scale. As a result, the
all-natural product segment is witnessing an increase in
grain-free, meat-and-poultry-first, and clean, wholesome-ingredients.
Cat food flavor profiles are consistent with the rest of the
pet food market, which mirrors human dietary preferences. As a result of the
increased consumer interest in quality and nutrition, premium wet cat food is
becoming popular.
The rising focus on pet health has boosted the scope of
sales for functional cat food. Cat owners are looking for products that have
higher nutritional value. These factors are creating lucrative growth
opportunities for new and existing players.
Functional foods are incorporated with several essential
nutrients. Consequently, manufacturers should focus on the launch of new
functional products to upscale their business. The demand for frozen and
freeze-dried cat food is increasing. One of the factors driving the growth of
the frozen and freeze-dried pet food market is the growing trend of nuclear
families.
Advertisements and pet health awareness campaigns are on the
rise, and celebrity endorsements are another element driving the popularity of
frozen and freeze-dried cat foods. These products can be preserved for longer
periods of time without losing key characteristics.
