Executive summary

Prices Rise, Volume Flattens

Market growth in 2009 is expected to be slower than the previous year. This is mainly due to the global economic downturn which hit New Zealand in the latter half of 2008, and has continued on a downward trend in 2009. Price rises have been evident over the period, due to increased costs and a weaker New Zealand dollar. This has resulted in a value rise mainly in super premium and premium products, while volume remains fairly flat across most markets.

Private Label Gains Ground

The key trend in 2008/2009 has resulted in the growth of private label. Stores have both branded pet food mid-priced products as well as economy labels which have gained in popularity as consumers’ trade down in light of harder economic times. In addition, pet superstore Animates have a range of pet food under the Animate’s own brand, sold through their chain of national stores.

Global Players Cover the Market

Multinationals continue to dominate the pet food and pet care market, with most entering new products to cover all the tiered-priced categories in both wet and dry foods. Domestic players continue to battle for share, with the stronger players managing to hold ground.

Grocery Remains Strong

Supermarket sales have increased, as super premium goods become out of reach for many pet owners. Many super premium brands have experienced strong price hikes in 2008, making some pet owners channel switch into premium supermarket brands. This is particularly so for cat food, where manufacturers are capturing the market with innovative single-serve multipacks in both wet and dry cat food.

Conservative Growth Outlook

All sectors within pet food and pet care are likely to experience a slower growth in both value and volume over the forecast period. The economic downturn is expected to last well beyond 2009, with a pick up towards the latter half of the forecast time period. This has contributed to slower growth, as consumers trade down and become more price conscious.
