One of the key drivers for the global animal food market is the increasing number of pet owners in developed as well as developing economies. While owning a pet is already common in North America and Europe, leading to a firmly established presence of a strong sales network for animal food and accessories, pet ownership is an emerging phenomenon in developing countries in Asia Pacific and Latin America. This presents an immense scope for future development of the animal food market, as the purchasing power of consumers in these regions is growing steadily, leading to not only an increase in the number of pet owners, but their purchasing power in terms of premium pet food.

The rising demand for meat and meat products has also had a favorable impact on the global animal food market, as it has given a boost to animal husbandry operations across the world. Despite the rising popularity of vegetarianism, this is likely to remain a key driver for the animal food industry in the coming years.

Another key driver for the animal food market is the consistent technological advancement in the industry and the resultant improvement in the quality of the final product. This has helped the animal food industry create a favorable perception among consumers, as side effects of animal food are among the top concerns of pet owners. Technological development has also allowed the animal food industry to come up with a highly species-specific product catalog, which has had a notable effect on the demand for animal food.

By product type, the global animal food market can be segmented into dry dog food, moist dog food, dry cat food, moist cat food, treats, and others. Due to the popularity of dogs as pets, dog food is likely to remain the leading contributor to the global animal food market in the coming years.
