The upward trend in pet adoption rates is anticipated to drive the expansion of the pet food ingredient market. Pet adoption involves assuming responsibility for an animal previously owned by another individual, whether it be a person, shelter, or rescue group. Pet animals constitute the primary consumers of pet food ingredients, necessitating a diverse range of nutrients to sustain healthy bodily functions. These nutrients contribute to maintaining muscular tone, building and repairing muscles, teeth, and bones, facilitating daily activities, and bolstering the immune system. The surge in pet adoption rates, exemplified by a November 2022 national survey by Animal Medicines Australia (AMA), reveals that approximately half of Australian households have at least one dog, making them the most prevalent pets. Notably, 37 percent of dogs and 40 percent of cats in Australia were acquired since the onset of the pandemic, underscoring the significant impact of increasing pet adoption rates on the growth of the pet food ingredient market.
The expanding e-commerce sector is poised to fuel the advancement of the pet food ingredients market.

The International Trade Administration reported in October 2021 that e-commerce for consumer goods is expected to constitute about 22% of global retail sales by 2024, growing at an average rate of over 1%. Furthermore, retail e-commerce sales are projected to experience a consistent, long-term increase of 8% in all global retail e-commerce sales through 2024. Consequently, the expanding e-commerce sector emerges as a key driver for the growth of the pet food ingredients market.
