Executive summary
Good economic performance boosts market
The booming financial market, decrease in unemployment rate and overall positive economic indicators have provided a good base for people to spend more willingly, including in the pet food and pet care products market. This is reflected in the expanding number of pet shops, veterinary clinics, kennels, products and services that cater for better pet life and care. Not only has the number of pet care establishments increased, so has investment in them. Pet shop sizes are increasing, and the retail environment has seen a change from individual small establishments to pet shop chains and veterinary clinics. The proliferation of different pet associations and related pet exhibitions/shows has given further momentum to the market.
Media influences pet pampering
Pets are riding on a wave of popularity due to the increasing number of pet television programmes and print articles. The internet has brought information regarding different pet-related events in Hong Kong and around the world and there are reports of how pets are being pampered as if they were humans. Saunas, spas, jogging machines etc, anything you can name for a human can now be found for a pet. There has also been more media coverage of pets being kept by celebrities and singers and those in the entertainment industry. How these people dress up and groom their pets is a common topic for discussion.
Pet owners treating pets like humans
With more information on the internet and in the media regarding pet nutrition or pet care, pet owners are demanding products and services that best suit their pet. Different pets, even of the same breed, have different needs. The bond between pet and pet owner has grown stronger. Just like their own children, these owners pamper their pets like humans and ensure that they only get the best of everything. The “one product for all purposes” concept is no longer applicable as pet owners prefer specialist products for specific needs.
One-stop pet centre gaining popularity
Traditional pet stores provide a sufficient stock of pet food and pet care merchandise together with grooming services. However, because of the high rents in Hong Kong, most shops are small, are packed with limited merchandise and pets have to be put in a small cage and queue for the grooming service. Pet owners seldom have the chance to see how the grooming is done. All this makes the visit a bit of a routine. The emergence of one-stop pet centres not only provides a more spacious and comfortable shopping environment, but also gives pet owners a more rewarding experience in each visit. This is achieved through watching how their pet is groomed, having tea together at the café, a chance for their pet to play with other pets and for pet owners to mingle with other pet lovers.
Structured market facilitates growth
The pet food and pet care products market in Hong Kong is becoming more mature not only in terms of its structure but also in its attitude towards keeping a pet. Industry infrastructure and standards keep improving as a result of demand and competition. Associations for different pets’ interests have been set up to enable pets to attain fair rights. Humanisation and specialisation further motivate pet owners to spend more on pet food and related services. Coupled with a positive economic outlook, the pet food market is expected to experience further growth in both value and volume terms.
