U.S. Wet Pet Food Processing Equipment Market Summary
The U.S. wet pet food processing equipment market size was estimated at USD 420.3 million in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 696.8 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2025 to 2033. Market growth is primarily fueled by the increasing prioritization of pet wellness and the strong cultural trend of pet humanization.
Unlike global markets where rising pet ownership in emerging regions drives expansion, growth in the U.S. is anchored in the mature yet evolving consumer base that demands high-quality, protein-rich, and clean-label wet pet foods. This shift in consumer preferences is pushing manufacturers to upgrade to advanced, automated processing technologies that ensure nutritional integrity, efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
In the U.S., the premiumization of pet food is being propelled by a growing focus on health and wellness among pet owners, who increasingly view their pets as family members. This heightened awareness is leading to greater demand for nutrient-dense, high-quality wet pet food products. Furthermore, the shift toward clean-label, organic, and minimally processed formulations is particularly strong in the U.S. market, prompting domestic manufacturers to upgrade to advanced processing equipment that ensures transparency, safety, and nutritional retention-further driving equipment demand.
