Executive summary

High inflation erodes growth

Vietnam saw a marked downturn in its economy in 2008, with extremely high inflation. This resulted in an erosion of disposable income levels, further compounded by food shortages and drought. While a growing enthusiasm for pets resulted in strong growth for the majority of the review period, therefore, economic concerns resulted in many consumers cutting back their expenditure in 2008, with growth rates plummeting as a result.

Lower-priced products provide a glimmer of hope

A major factor in constraining growth for pet food and pet care products is the high price of most products. There is no presence for economy dog and cat food in the country, for example, with premium products dominating. However, the launch of mid-priced dog and cat food by Perfect Companion indicated that there is demand for cheaper products, with sales of mid-priced dog and cat food soaring in 2008. Similarly, domestic player Hoang Anh Co Ltd achieved striking growth for "other" pet care products and healthcare in 2008, due to its range of good quality but affordably-priced products.

Multinationals dominate despite Nestlé’s exit

There is a marked lack of strong domestic players in pet food and pet care products in Vietnam, with only a handful being present. Consequently multinationals dominate, even given the exit of Nestlé and a declining investment in the country. Effem Food Vietnam Co Ltd benefited most from Nestlé’s exit and extended its dominance. This was despite the company cutting back on marketing and promotion towards the end of the review period, with its growth largely due to a lack of effective competition.

Supermarkets/hypermarkets losing share

Supermarkets/hypermarkets is the leading channel in pet food and pet care products, with this largely due to Effem Food Vietnam Co Ltd’s focus on this channel and the largely urban mid- and high-income consumer base for these products. However, there was a shift towards specialist channels towards the end of the review period, with veterinary clinics notably gaining share. Due to economic concerns, many consumers shifted away from prepared food and, increasingly, such products were purchased only following recommendations from vets.

Optimistic times ahead for niche pet food and pet care products

Despite the slowing growth seen towards the end of the review period, there is still considerable optimism regarding the future sales of pet food and pet care products. The pet population is continuing to grow in the country, along with awareness of prepared food and pet care products. Younger consumers in particular appear to be interested in pet-keeping, while the extremely low levels of household penetration suggest considerable room for growth. However, growth will continue to be limited by the low purchasing power of most consumers, along with a pragmatic attitude to animals, which are typically kept more for work or food than for companionship.
