Drivers and Restraints:

Increase in demand for plant-based pet food due to rise in awareness among the pet owners

The shift in human preferences to plant-based protein has affected a change in preferences for feed as well. Plant-based protein preferences in pets such as dog and cat food diets have been shown to closely mimic those of their vegan or vegetarian owners. According to the study published by the Pet Food Manufacturers Association in 2019, 34% of the British dog food buyers believe that a plant-based diet is better for their dog than a meat-based diet. The prime concern with meat-based pet food diets is farm animal welfare and rights. Moreover, most pet owners are animal-lovers and are more likely to place a high value on the humane and ethical treatment of animals raised for food production. An unhealthy perception of meat and environmental and sustainability concerns over animal protein production are also strong growth drivers promoting plant-based pet food in recent years.

Stringent regulatory framework restrains international trade

According to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 (FFDCA), animal food is required to be safe for consumption and manufactured in sanitary conditions. The animal feed must not contain harmful substances and should have approximate labeling. The Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010 (FSMA) introduced guidelines related to certification, sterilization, hygiene, and labeling ingredients for pet food manufacturers in the US. Government monitoring agencies in Europe and North America have strict regulations for the animal feed industry compared to those in the Asia Pacific and South American regions. The regulations related to pet food ingredients such as preservatives, ethoxyquin, and food dye are different in various countries. Due to the lack of a universal regulatory structure, global trading of feed ingredients has been restraint. Huge investments have been made in manufacturing feed ingredients; however, several regulations lead to severe losses for feed manufacturers. It becomes expensive to frequently update the technologies and facilities in accordance with the changing guidelines. Pet food manufacturers are required to submit patent and approval applications to launch new products in various countries.
