Executive summary

Economic development fuels consumption

Russia posted real GDP growth of 6.4% and real wage rises were in double figures showing consecutive years of economic development, spurring the Russian consumption boom and leading to the development of markets throughout the economy. Western styles of consumption are now within easy reach allowing the pet food and pet care market to show good growth across all sectors in value and volume terms. As the distribution network develops and supermarket consumption spreads, mid-priced and economy brands are experiencing rising demand and the numbers of pet owners relying on non-prepared food options for their pets is decreasing as they come to value the convenience and benefits of commoditised offerings. Value growth was spurred in particular by urban consumers buying into humanisation trends where pets have human characteristics attributed to them. These consumers are more inclined to spend higher amounts on premium end products that promise additional health benefits as their disposable incomes rise.

Rising disposable incomes fuel interest in premium products

Rising disposable incomes and more favourable economic conditions are having a knock-on effect in the consumer market. Whilst pet numbers are stabilising owing to increasing urbanisation and more hectic lifestyles making pet care more difficult, the pet food and pet care market is growing as consumers chose more sophisticated products to care for their animals, thus we see premium foods growing since they are considered to be of higher quality and to possess additional health benefits. Many Russians though remain keen to gain value for their money and convenience which has promoted similarly healthy growth in mid-priced and economy segments.

Leading players consolidate their positions

Multinationals Mars OOO and Nestlé Purina Petcare OOO remained the leading players in the pet food and pet care market regardless of additional competition from domestic manufacturers generally competing in mid-priced and economy segments. Although many of these domestic players made moves to modernise their production facilities, improve their distribution networks and increase activity to promote awareness of their products, the multinationals often sit at the forefront of innovation, have considerably greater financial backing to ensure distribution, as well as advertising and promotion, allowing them to hold onto their market shares and maintain their appeal to customers. This makes it increasingly difficult for domestic manufacturers to enter the scene.

Supermarkets extend their clutch over consumers

Changes of the face of Russian retail are gathering momentum as supermarkets extend their reach and increase their presence as goods distributors in Russia. Foreign businesses are also increasingly setting their sights on Russia's emerging consumer movement and are expected to make serious moves soon. Supermarkets are getting larger and granting more shelf space to brands and encouraging further diversification of products, as well as increasingly bringing private label products to the market. This is causing increased competition, which is having a moderating effect on prices and in turn allowing more consumers access to higher quality products.

The future of pet food

The pet food and pet care market is expected to show good growth over the forecast period. It is anticipated that a greater trend towards polarisation will emerge in the Russian market as more regional consumers come to appreciate the convenience and additional benefits of commoditised offerings in comparison to non-prepared options turning to economy products and urban consumers with rising incomes fuelling growth of premium end products. This will bring about considerable pressure on mid-priced options. Multinational companies are expected to retain their dominance across most sectors, given stronger financial backing to ensure new product development and range extensions; advertising and regular discounts for consumers. Rising competition with the development of the supermarket retail scene and the increased penetration of private label products will cause many manufacturers to make moves to ensure sales through added-value innovation; diversification; convenience and product performance. The calm forecast for this market relies considerably on economic stability being maintained since this has created the conditions under which consumerism has flourished. The extent to which Russia's economy relies on the export of natural resources means a potentially significant destabilising factor could prove to be the fluctuating cost of oil.
