The pet supplements market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market for pet supplements has experienced robust growth over the past few years. Its worth is anticipated to rise from $2.27 billion in 2024 to $2.44 billion in 2025, indicating at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%.
Elements fuelling growth during the historic period were a rise in pet ownership, advice from vets, humanizing of pets, an aging pet demographic, and a heightened understanding of preventive care.
The pet supplements market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Anticipated robust expansion in the market size of pet supplements is projected in the coming years. By 2029, it is projected to reach $3.31 billion, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%.
Factors contributing to the growth during the forecast period include up-gradation of pet commodities, personalized pet nutrition, an increase in spending on pet healthcare, the control of e-commerce, and innovative product delivery methods. The forecast period is expected to see trends such as application of technology, bespoke and functional formulas, broadening of product offerings, online retailing and subscription-based models, and transparency in sourcing and manufacturing.
The growth of the pet supplements market can be largely attributed to escalating worries over animal welfare. This refers to the conditions in which a creature is housed and cared for. Pet supplements are utilised to give essential nutrition to animals and to treat different ailments, thereby enhancing animal welfare. For instance, an article published by the American Pet Products Association (APPA) in April 2023, a trade organization based in the US, predicts that sales of OTC medicaments and wellness goods will rise from $31.5 billion in 2022 to $32.1 billion in 2023. Likewise, sales of veterinary care and products are expected to increase from $35.9 billion in 2022 to $37.0 billion in 2023. Hence, the escalating concerns surrounding animal welfare is a key factor driving the pet supplements market.
