Pet care product companies are seeing an increase in online sales thanks to e-commerce sites like Amazon and eBay that serve pet products. Online resources are increasingly being used by pet owners to learn about pet care. To meet the evolving health and wellness requirements of dogs, manufacturers are laying a solid research basis in the newest components.
Innovative distribution methods like e-commerce websites and their tactical distribution channels have left behind the brick-and-mortar system. Businesses are using content marketing and creative policies to attract customers, which in turn will lead to growing demand.
Domestic businesses ruled the market not a long time ago. Things are changing now, however, with the creation of several domestic brands as well as foreign players coming into the market. The key reason for the influx of several international brands might be because of the evolution of the customers’ buying patterns. They are more discerning and have more awareness about options, paired with a higher disposable income and increased willingness to spend.
The foreign direct investment offered by regional governments might be another reason for the influx of foreign brands in regional markets. As a result, the USA & Canada pet care products market is estimated to surge at a decent rate with a 5.1% CAGR during the forecast period.
Promotional Campaigns and Expos Driving Demand
To gain a considerable market share in the growing, competitive industry, businesses are adopting several strategies such as campaigns and attending pet product expos. Such promotional activities are enabling manufacturers and suppliers to promote pet care products in a much broader landscape.

Growing Expenditure on Pets
Consumers are spending more on their pets (such as cats & dogs) which is driving the growth at the premium end of the market. The growing trend among consumers of considering pets as their family members is enabling manufacturers to offer more and more pet products.

This includes more than USD 62 billion spent on pet food and treats, and USD 32.1 billion on supplies, live animals, and over-the-counter medications.
