Pet Care in
Country Report
Executive Summary
Jun 2019The pet humanisation trend reaches new levels
Although not a brand-new trend, pet humanisation is exerting a growing influence on the industry. As the impact of human food and health trends on pet food accelerates, more protein-rich products are appearing on retailers’ shelves.
Premiumisation and segmentation characterise pet care
The premiumisation trend continued to develop in pet care in France at the end of the review period. This underpinned slightly faster current value sales growth across categories in 2019, compared with 2018, despite flat volume sales growth in pet food overall.
Potential of pet food offers growth opportunities for new and existing players
Global giants Nestlé Purina PetCare France and Mars Petcare & Food France maintained a clear lead in pet food in France in 2018. While their leadership is unlikely to be challenged in the short term, the landscape is increasingly competitive.
Internet retailing puts pressure on traditional and modern retailers
Supported by the general trend in retailing, the fast rise of internet retailing is expected to continue in pet care over the forecast period. Internet retailers increasingly offer broader product ranges, convenience shopping and very competitive prices.
Improved growth performance expected over the forecast period
Pet food, and pet care overall, is expected to see faster current value sales growth over the forecast period, compared with the review period. While some of this growth is predicted to be derived from higher prices, the premiumisation and pet humanisation trends continue to stimulate value through the growing demand for healthier and more natural pet food and better quality pet products that provide greater comfort and enhance the wellbeing of pets.
