The premiumisation trend was already visible in dog food during the pandemic, although it has slowed down to some extent in 2022, given less time spent at home and inflationary pressures. Going forward, however, the premiumisation trend is likely to be sticky.
Beyond premiumisation: Individual meals and BARF
Dog owners in Germany are focusing not only on the quality of dog food, but also increasingly on the values of the company, such as sustainability, animal welfare or regionality. Some owners tend to go more extreme and try to produce food for their pets themselves by using raw fresh ingredients, called BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food).
E-commerce and subscription models to rise in prominence
The pandemic pushed e-commerce in all dog food categories, which is no surprise, given the circumstances of home seclusion and people trying to avoid crowded places. But, with new online supermarkets entering the e-commerce channel, there are new opportunities for brands to be sold online moving forward.
