The global pet snacks and treats market size was valued at $33.16 Billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.7% from 2022 to 2030. In recent years, pet owners across the U.S. have been spending significantly on their pets’ well-being and nutrition. According to statistics provided by the American Pet Products Association (APPA), in 2019, owners spent around $97.1 Billion on pets in the U.S. This trend correlates with the growth of certain pet food segments, including healthy treats, snacks, specialty pet foods, and other premium options. Even amid the COVID-19 pandemic and the global economic crisis that ensued, pet industry sales exceeded $29.17 Billion in 2020. This growth can largely be attributed to the growing number of pet ownerships, as many people sought out pets during the pandemic for comfort and companionship. The increasing number of pets across the U.S. is driving the demand for pet snacks & treats in the country. For instance, according to the U.S. Pet Food Industry’s pet ownership study, in 2020, pet ownership rose from 67% of households to an all-time high of 70%, which is confirmed by the APPA. The booming pet treats market in the U.S. will continue to create opportunities for market players, particularly from a supplier viewpoint. As consumers continue to be price-conscious, developing premium lines that also tap into other categories, such as breed, age, and lifestyle, are seen as an opportunity for manufacturers to offer added value.
