Market Definition
Pet food is special food for domestic animals or food designed to meet their nutritional needs. Pet food is a plant or animal product, such as meat, that is used to feed pets. Fruits and vegetables, animal products, grains and oilseeds, vitamins, and minerals are all included in pet food. Pet food ingredients are high in vitamins, fiber, protein, carbohydrates, and calcium. Grains and vegetables are usually used especially for dog food. Each component is crucial to enrich the animal's body. The protein content of meat is generally considered high, and it also adds flavor to food. Many ingredients, such as meat, poultry, and grains, are believed to be safe and do not require premarket approval. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are also produced, which are essential for animal metabolism and digestion. Pet food manufacturers use different ingredients to balance pet nutrition. In addition to acting as preservatives, conditioners, emulsifiers, stabilizers, and color or flavor substitutes, they are also used in pet food.
Europe Pet Food Flavors and Ingredients Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Surge in pet adoption rate with the growing popularity of premium pet foods across the globe
The Europe pet food flavor ingredients market is poised to show strong growth due to increased adoption of pets, rising expenditure on pet care, increasing demand for insect-based pet food, and a booming pet food market. The pet industry has grown exponentially in recent years. According to the American Pet Products Association, about 85 million households have a pet, and pet ownership has increased from 56 percent to 68 percent over the past 30 years. The introduction of technology and online shopping has contributed to some of the changes in pet ownership. Due to the effects of COVID-19, many people have been forced to stay at home for long periods, either due to shelter-in-place orders or due to work-from-home advice. Soon after, the amount of time spent at home increased, and adoptions and fosters were registered at pet shelters. Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of pets around the world has increased significantly. Also, emerging pet food ingredients market trends, such as the increasing popularity of premium foods across the country, are driving the growth of the pet food flavors and ingredients market, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.
Thus, the surge in pet adoption rate and the growing popularity of premium pet foods around the globe are expected to act as an opportunity for the market's growth.
- Increasing demand for customized pet foods from pet owners
Pet owners are adopting the mindset that personalization is right, not a privilege, and the ability for pet owners to have input in what they buy has impacted the pet food industry. Pet owners are now willing to pay more for customized pet food products that satisfy their pet's particular dietary needs. When generational differences among pet owners are considered, young pet owners are expected to pay more for customized treats/pet foods than older pet owners. This shows that the trend toward customization is expected to continue to grow as younger shoppers start their pet parenting journey and gain more buying power.
Thus, increasing demand for customized pet foods from pet owners is expected to act as a driving factor for market growth.
Restraint
- Stringent mandates for pet food manufacturers
Pet food manufacturers, government agencies, and veterinarians play vital roles in ensuring the safety of pet food and safeguarding pets and their owners. It behooves veterinary practitioners to be aware of recent federal legislation affecting pet food safety, the role of the manufacturer in producing safe foods, and their own role in identifying potential pet food–related illnesses, reporting suspected cases and educating pet owners about pet food safety. Since pet food requires extreme safety in production, several associations and governments have set strict standards that manufacturers must adhere to, especially in Western countries. Strict oversight of pet food, from ingredients to production and sales to distribution, market rigidity may prevent large companies from investing in the sector and hamper the growth of the Europe pet food flavors and ingredients market in the coming years.
Thus, stringent mandates for pet food manufacturers are expected to act as a restraining factor for the market's growth.
Opportunity
- Increasing demand for cannabidiol (CBD) pet food
A safe and well-processed cannabinoid derived from hemp, CBD pet supplements support pet health by working with their endocannabinoid systems. Some of the main reasons many pet owners turn to CBD pet food are that it supports healthy joints, helps promote cardiovascular function, and prevents the spread of heartworms. In 2020, U.S. pet sales were nearly USD 800 million, and consumers are willing to pay more for pet health services. CBD pet supplements offer a number of claims, including wheat, corn, and soy free, which means they are all-natural and contribute to market growth.
Moreover, growing consumer awareness of nutritional advantages associated with hemp derivatives and increasing production of industrial hemp have directed the growth of the market for hemp derivatives. CBD foods are expected to last longer than traditional pet foods.
Thus, increasing demand for cannabidiol pet food is expected to act as an opportunity for market growth.
Challenge
- Increasing competition in the pet food flavors and ingredients market
The companies within the industry are expected to grow even more in the future, which will create high competition in the pet food flavors and ingredients market. New market players are coming up with innovative marketing strategies, such as offering products at lower costs and using innovative ingredients, which is a challenging factor for the tier-1 and tier-2 players. Competition among companies exists when they produce and market similar services and products aimed at the same consumer group. This is becoming a challenging factor for companies to gain significant market share. Big giants in the pet food flavors and ingredients market, such as ADM, Koninklijke DSM N.V., and DuPont among others, have extensive distribution networks, strong Europe footprint, and strong R&D, which poses a problem for small players to compete with these players. A large number of players in Europe's pet food industry increases the completion in the pet food flavors and ingredients market.
Thus, increasing competition in the pet food flavors and ingredients market is expected to act as a challenge for market growth.
