The veterinary biomarkers market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the veterinary biomarkers market has seen significant expansion in recent times. It is projected to escalate from $0.81 billion in 2024 to $0.91 billion in 2025 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4%.
The historic period growth is attributed to various factors such as the burgeoning veterinary diagnostics market, heightened focus on preventive healthcare, incorporation of biomarkers in veterinary medicine, increased inflow of funds for veterinary research, and a surge in the number of veterinary diagnostic laboratories.
The veterinary biomarkers market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the veterinary biomarkers market is projected to witness a swift expansion. The market, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%, is expected to reach $1.44 billion by 2029.
Various factors such as the surge in animal diseases, an uptick in the demand for tailored veterinary medicine, a growing necessity for preventive diagnostics, the rise of digital health tools, and heightened attention towards animal welfare rules drive growth during the predicted period. The forecast period will also see significant trends including improvements in diagnostic technology, progression in biomarker studies, technology advancements in biomarker detection, the invention of user-friendly diagnostic apparatus, and progression in personalized nutritional resolutions.
The surge in pet ownership is projected to drive the expansion of the veterinary biomarkers sector in the future. This surge in pet ownership can be linked to a variety of factors, such as the need for companionship, the effects of pet therapy, and the increasing recognition of the positive influence pets exert on mental and physical health. Veterinary biomarkers are employed in the context of pet ownership to keep a check on the animal's health, facilitating the early detection of diseases and individualised treatment regimens. For example, as reported by the American Pet Products Association, a non-profit association based in the US, in October 2023, there were 86.9 million pet-owning households in the US, accounting for 66% of households in 2022. Furthermore, Animal Medicines Australia, an association representing animal health in Australia, indicated in November 2022 that 69% of Australian households had pets in 2022. As a result, the rising trend of pet ownership is fuelling the growth of the veterinary biomarkers market.
