Organic Pet Food Market Share, Growth, Analysis, Trends,
Forecast Report, 2016-2024: Global Market Insights Inc.
The Organic Pet Food Market size is predicted to grow at a significant CAGR during
the forecast period. There are numerous factors leading to the emergence of organic
pet products. There is a vast population who have adopted the trend of keeping pets
owing to the nuclear family structure and changing lifestyle. The focus of people on
pet health and wellness is increasing. A multitude of health problems has become a
grave issue for pet owners. Pets are afflicted with various diseases such as digestive
disorders, arthritis, brain aging, skin allergies and obesity.
Organic pet foods have added ingredients like vitamins, proteins, amino acids, fatty
acids and minerals. They have no preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and are
free from genetically modified ingredients. They are made based on the type and age
of the pet. Increased awareness about the pet health is leading to the popularity of
organic products. These products have more nutritional value than conventional pet
food. Another driver is the demand for transparency in product composition.
Endorsements and advertisements about pet health awareness has increased in the
past years resulting in the upward trend of organic food for animals. People have been
adopting stray and injured animals which has accelerated the demand of the product.
Social media has been actively involved to promote pet care services, therefore,
driving the trend towards healthy pet food.
The constraints which can slow down the growth of the concerned industry are lack of
pet market specific regulations, supply issues and soaring prices. Organic pet foods
constitute a small portion in the overall pet food market. Pet food manufacturers have
to adhere to organic label for human food as there is no particular mandate for pet
organic food. The rising competition level among the market players will force
companies to reduce the product prices which will affect their profits. Therefore, the
manufacturers need to diversify their product portfolio in order to thrive in the market.
Exclusive pet shops have gained popularity due to the availability of all organic food
brands for a variety of animals.
The organic pet food industry can be segmented on the basis of animal type, product
type, distribution channel and region. The animal type segment consists of organic
dog food, organic cat food, bird food and others such as fish food, horse food, etc. The
dog food segment dominated the market in 2016 and is anticipated to grow in the
forecast period due to the rising adoption of dogs to reduce stress and improve
cardiovascular health.

the product market. Based on the distribution channel, the market is segmented into
