Executive Summary

Jul 2019
PROSPECTS
Optimistic expectations for cat food

In the forecast period cat food will continue to see stronger value growth than dog food and other pet food. Cat food also sees high levels of innovation, especially in snacks and wet food.

Cat treats still most dynamic, but growth rate is slowing down

Generally, in 2018, cat owners paid slightly more for their pet food per head than in 2017. Strong growth in treats continued to be seen, although it was slower than in 2017.

Internet retailing continues to record strong growth

Pet cat food sales are gradually increasing online. Internet retailing has a growing impact and continues to reshape the distribution landscape.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Mars Austria remains the leading player

Due to the continued growth in cat food the competition is becoming more intense, especially in the mid-priced and premium segments. Companies continue to focus on innovation and constant product improvement to be the first to deliver new products and concepts to the market.

Growing competition from private label

In 2018, private label enjoyed a strong position in cat food, with growing sales in all product types. The increasing share of private label is expected to be seen over the forecast period as well.

New products continue to be seen

The new product launches Whiskas Creamy Soups and Sheba Classic Soups are available through all major retail channels, but still remain rather niche products. However, the companies are widening these product ranges in terms of tastes.
